Mathletics is a program that each of our students has access to via the Student Portal. Periodically, students log into Mathletics at school when they have completed their work. This program is an excellent home-practice or homework tool so it has been added to the Monday-Friday homework routine in grade 4/5. Students are also always encouraged to practice basic math facts and numeracy skills on their own at home. There is a website link on the left side of the Blog home screen called 'Dad's Worksheets' which has lots of free practice sheets for students at home. Your grade 4 child should have a quick and accurate recall of multiplication facts up to 12 X 12. They should be starting to relate multiplication facts to division facts. Grade 5 students should be able to use their quick and accurate recall of multiplication facts to correctly identify related division facts (e.g. 8 x 8 is 64 so 64 ÷ 8 = 8).
