Division rules

We all worked well at solving division sums. To work out 20 divided by 5, we counted up in 5s (4) to get our answer. Some children particularly Amy were able to answer these questions very quickly by the end of the lesson. These questions are much easier if we know our times tables so our homework this week is to learn our 2 times table.
In Literacy we wrote an information text on Florence Nightingale. We used the past tense and wrote events in the orde that it happened in her life. Amazing how many children can remember details of the owl she used to carry around with her.
We tested in the afternoon which rocks are permeable and impermeable.
