@DRETmaths has been in to teach Y1 and Y4 today. Staff have had the opportunity to observe a model lesson for CPD, and the children have benefited from an expert teaching them our new maths scheme: Effective Maths. We are so excited to have a successful term 👏

The best number is 73. 73 is the 21st prime number. Its mirror (37) is the 12th and its mirror (21) is the product of multiplying 7 and 3. In binary, 73 is a palindrome, 1001001 which backwards is 1001001 [source: buff.ly/3p6Vg1i]
