Maths

In Maths, we will be exploring the huge array of different problems that can be solved using mathematics.

We will ensure that children are confident using both formal written methods of calculation

but also mental arithmetic skills to solve questions quickly and easily.

We follow the Red Rose Maths teaching scheme, which includes fluency,

reasoning and problem solving activities.

This approach enables children to become secure in a topic,

as well as providing a suitable amount of challenge for differing abilities.

It is important that children have a firm grasp of all their times tables up to 12 x 12,

including the related division facts.

This will not only boost their confidence but also speed up both simple and more complex problem solving.

It also allows children to spot patterns.

Therefore, any help or practice you help you can give your children will be of great benefit.

Times Table Rockstars can really help with this!
