I went into the Post Office to post a letter to America, and was served by a young lad who couldn't have been much older than my own son (at that time around 13). The cost was £1.90. I gave him a £10 note and waited for my change. How much was I given ?

Helping your child with writing. Each week the children are asked to write a BIG WRITE (Thursday morning). They are given a prompt sheet to take home on the Wednesday afternoon, so that they can ‘prepare to write’. Encourage your child to think about the vocabulary and punctuation they could include in their piece of work. They could ‘magpie’ using their reading book, a book or web site at home.
