Mental Maths 

Each morning, P6/7 participate in various mental maths activities, such as counting aloud, completing activities on the interactive whiteboard and going head-to-head as part of a team.  We also take time to revise our times tables.
Every Thursday morning from 08:45, we participate in various table-top mental maths activities set up in a carousel style. We love the movement around the various stations and exploring all the different games whilst improving our skills, knowledge and  understanding.
