Mental Maths Objectives Summer Term 2016 Children will be given a range of online games and tasks from MyMaths as homework during the summer term. These can be found at www.MyMaths.co.uk. Children need their username and password to access the games. Children will not be tested on the objectives on a Friday for Maths this term. There will be a range of games and tasks set for the children at a given time, but please note that homework is to take no longer than 20min per week and there is no expectation for children to complete all tasks. However, we do understand that some children will want to spend longer on the games and tasks and to possibly complete them all. This is completely up to the individual and time allowance for homework at home. Below is a guidance of what objectives will appear on MyMaths and when. The homework will coincide with the Maths focus and objectives being taught in class at that time. As ever, if there is anything that you would like to ask one of the Teachers regarding homework in Year3/4, then please do not hesitate to call in and speak to one of us.
