Math is all about numbers, problems and equations, we can all be really good at the quick calculations, but do we actually understand how we get to the answer? Diving Deeper is about making our calculations go further- deepening our understanding of what numbers mean and how we use them to get to an answer.
Take a look at this poster and encourage your child to Dive Deeper for a question from Homework or Fluency Books.
Reading Challenge : Please encourage your child to read a book of their choice. Encourage a variety of vocabulary and texts, such as poetry, biographies, newspapers traditional tales.
We look forward to reading your book reviews and recommendations.
