Parent Workshops

This year we have delivered a number of parent workshops in Maths across the age ranges. Here is what parents had to say afterwards:

Nursery

I would like to say thank you for inviting me to support my child, and I think this is the best way to teach him all the number eg. 1-10.

I enjoyed so much and I did not know that counting was so important now I understand.

Fantastic workshop I learn how I can teach my child at home

Year 1

Fantastic help for parents. Very encouraging and a chance to see your child work through activities, thank you very much.

This is very useful. I always wait for maths workshops. I hope school provide this again and again.

It was a great workshop, especially the ideas to support your child at home, how to do questions from your child. Thanks a lot.

Year 2

Very pleased with the help provided by the teachers, thye make is simple to teach the children at home. Mr Smith was excellent in providing the extra help in any information if further needed in how to improve on my sons maths skill. Very pleased overall 2.

Best workshop I have attended in school so far, very well executed. The plus point way having my child sitting next to me and showcasing the skills taught in the workshop. Thank you keep at it

Year 3

It’s really good to come and attend these sessions because it helps you to learn more and easy to help at home with child to do their homework.

This workshop is very good, its helps for both children and parents.

Year 4

I will try much harder to put time aside to practise their timetables with my child and try the tips.

These workshops are extremely helpful in helping me understand how I can help my sister enjoy and learn maths and the importance of learning. I think more of these workshops should take place.

Year 6

It is helpful for the children. We would like to do 2 more and learn. Workshops are very helpful for us and for the children.

 

Our Maths Curriculum – a mastery approach

 

The maths curriculum is designed with a mastery approach in mind - small sequential steps that allow fundamental skills to be fully embedded before moving onto more in depth features of mathematics. Learners are encouraged and supported to use concrete, pictorial and abstract representations to help build procedural and conceptual knowledge. The teaching of mathematical vocabulary is interwoven throughout the curriculum and should underpin the teaching of new concepts in order attempt to overcome the language barriers that can hinder progress.

National Curriculum Purpose of study 

Mathematics is a creative and highly inter-connected discipline that has been developed over centuries, providing the solution to some of history’s most intriguing problems. It is essential to everyday life, critical to science, technology and engineering, and necessary for financial literacy and most forms of employment. A high-quality mathematics education therefore provides a foundation for understanding the world, the ability to reason mathematically, an appreciation of the beauty and power of mathematics, and a sense of enjoyment and curiosity about the subject.

National Curriculum Aims 

The national curriculum for mathematics aims to ensure that all pupils:

  • become fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics, including through varied and frequent practice with increasingly complex problems over time, so that pupils develop conceptual understanding and the ability to recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately.
  • reason mathematically by following a line of enquiry, conjecturing relationships and generalisations, and developing an argument, justification or proof using mathematical language
  • can solve problems by applying their mathematics to a variety of routine and non- routine problems with increasing sophistication, including breaking down problems into a series of simpler steps and persevering in seeking solutions.

Mathematics is an interconnected subject in which pupils need to be able to move fluently between representations of mathematical ideas. The programmes of study are, by necessity, organised into apparently distinct domains, but pupils should make rich connections across mathematical ideas to develop fluency, mathematical reasoning and competence in solving increasingly sophisticated problems. They should also apply their mathematical knowledge to science and other subjects.

The expectation is that the majority of pupils will move through the programmes of study at broadly the same pace. However, decisions about when to progress should always be based on the security of pupils’ understanding and their readiness to progress to the next stage. Pupils who grasp concepts rapidly should be challenged through being offered rich and sophisticated problems before any acceleration through new content. Those who are not sufficiently fluent with earlier material should consolidate their understanding, including through additional practice, before moving on.

Spoken language

The national curriculum for mathematics reflects the importance of spoken language in pupils’ development across the whole curriculum – cognitively, socially and linguistically. The quality and variety of language that pupils hear and speak are key factors in developing their mathematical vocabulary and presenting a mathematical justification, argument or proof. They must be assisted in making their thinking clear to themselves as well as others and teachers should ensure that pupils build secure foundations by using discussion to probe and remedy their misconceptions

National Curriculum Key stage 1 

The principal focus of mathematics teaching in key stage 1 is to ensure that pupils develop confidence and mental fluency with whole numbers, counting and place value. This should involve working with numerals, words and the four operations, including with practical resources [for example, concrete objects and measuring tools]. At this stage, pupils should develop their ability to recognise, describe, draw, compare and sort different shapes and use the related vocabulary. Teaching should also involve using a range of measures to describe and compare different quantities such as length, mass, capacity/volume, time and money. By the end of year 2, pupils should know the number bonds to 20 and be precise in using and understanding place value. An emphasis on practice at this early stage will aid fluency. Pupils should read and spell mathematical vocabulary, at a level consistent with their increasing word reading and spelling knowledge at key stage 1.

Perimeter and Area

Measure and calculate the perimeter of composite rectilinear shapes in cm and m.

Calculate and compare the area of rectangles (including squares), and including using standard units, cm2, m2 estimate the area of irregular shapes.

Measures Volume

Estimate volume (for example using 1cm3 blocks to build cuboids (including cubes) and capacity (for example, using water)).

Use all four operations to solve problems involving measure.
