This is one of the Key Instant Recall Facts or KIRFs for your child’s year group. They are used to help develop children’s

fluency in mathematics. Help your child at home by encouraging them to learn this Key Instant Recall Fact. Each week I will send them a new KIRF to focus on. Please use the blue A4 exercise book that your child has at home already to practise in if needed. I would love to see a video or photo of

your child learning this and I will pick the best each week!
