XP Service Pack 2
For those of you updating XP with Service Pack 2 there are a few issues you
need to know about.
Firstly a compatibility issue with some Norton software, such as Goback.
Completely uninstall this software before upgrading otherwise your computer
will crash -as we found out to our cost. It took us a week to fully recover
from upgrading!
Secondly, the Service Pack removes all elements of Java from the system. This
means most of our games won't load. This means you now need to install a new
Java environment on the computer. This used to come as part of Windows and was
installed at the same time. The link below is for Sun Microsystems. Here you
can download the FREE Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment. Click on 'Download J2SE
JRE' to start.

Check list for observations of Numeracy Lessons
Just arrived in the Shareware area in the Teacher Area (you need to login to
get there), a check list for observations of Numeracy lessons as used by
Ofsted. This could be extremely useful for those of you about to be inspected!!
Starter
Jane had 15 pennies and 4 bags. She divided the pennies up into the 4 bags so
she could pay any amount of money from 1 p to 15 p without opening a bag.
How did she do this?
