Starting from next week our basic facts flashcards will have a new look. This is to ensure that the programme is consistent throughout the whole school. The main changes you will notice are:
- The flashcards may not be in numerical order. e.g. your child may bring home set 30, then when they pass that set they might bring home 24 D. This is just so your child/ren are learning the basic facts in a logical order.
- Your child will be ‘reset’ regularly. This means being tested on previously passed sets. The purpose of flashcards is not just to pass each set, but to ensure that the sets become known facts. By ‘resetting’, your child’s recall of facts will become instant, which will greatly help with their problem solving.
If you have any questions or queries please contact us.
Thanks,
Natalie Godby and Cassie Watt
