Family Maths Focus

Dear Parents,

Here is the information that we sent home about helping your child build maths confidence and fluency. Due to copyright issues, we are unable to post the Natural Maths posters that have also come home.

Also, here is a link to an interactive 100 square, too, to help reinforce number understandings:

We have also mentioned some maths videos that are designed to help build positive mindsets around maths. Here are the rest of the episodes:

Episode Two:

Episode Three:

Episode Four:

Episode Five:

Here is a photo of discussion questions that can go with each episode:

Finally, here is a link to a video of Ann Baker, from Natural Maths, talking about how parents can help their children build mathematical thinking at home. She outlines some other games that you may also want to explore, too.

 

Thanks for your support. As we have said, this kind of maths-based home learning is every bit as important as helping your child with reading. If you have any queries, please see your child’s classroom teacher.

Kind regards,

Marie, Rachel, Nancy, Karen and Emma
