Times tables 

Every week, we practise our times tables because they are a very important part of our practise at Sacred Heart! Having quick recall of times tables helps with our Maths lessons and allows us to really get stuck into our problem solving and reasoning challenges!

If you wish to support your child's learning of their times tables at home, please use:

Place Value

The children have been investigating how numbers are formed and how to partition them. In Year 3, we will be in working with ones, tens, hundreds and thousands and the children have been working really hard to ensure they can recognise, order and compare different numbers. 

Addition and Subtraction 

We have recently begun our work on addition and subtraction and the children are already proving they are using what their place value knowledge taught previously! 

We will begin by recapping our KS1 knowledge of adding and subtracting 1 and 2 digit numbers before moving on to 3 digit numbers. We are beginning to use the column method of addition and subtraction and we are enjoying the challenge!
