Times Tables Rock Stars

Dear Parents / Carers,

As part of our commitment to make maths exciting and high profile in our school, this November we are taking part in a competition for Maths Week England. It is called Rock Out 2020 and it is all done online via play.ttrockstars.com.

For every correct answer to a multiplication or division question, your child will earn their class a point. The Times Tables Rock Stars platform will calculate the class average (the number of correct answers per pupil in the class who play during the competition hours). Winning classes in our school and in the country as a whole will be the ones with the highest average.

All game modes (Gig, Garage, Studio, etc.) will count but only from games played between 7.30am and 7.30pm on Monday 9th, Tuesday 10th, Wednesday 11th, Thursday 12th, Friday 13th and Saturday 14th.

We suggest a limit of half an hour a day outside school hours – some will play more; some will play less.

If you have any questions or queries, please do not hesitate to ask me.

Thank you for your ongoing support

Adell Horbury - Assistant Head Teacher
