Year 1 Maths Calculation Evening 1st November 2016 Welcome!! Year 1 Maths Calculation Evening 1st November 2016 Thank you so much for taking the time to invest in your children’s maths education and I hope that you enjoyed watching all your lovely children doing maths. I really hope that we have not missed any children out. This evening will be an opportunity for you to learn about the maths that your children will be exposed to this year, the methods we use to support mathematical understanding and how you can support your children at home. At eversley we feel that it is really important to hold an evening specifically for year 1 parents as this will be the year where the children (if they havent done so already) will be moving on quite rapidly on their mathematical journey. We want to take this opportunity this evening to show you the transition from the very informal maths learning that happened last year to the more formal. We will be handing out a calculation policy that will support your children throughout their time here at Eversley but will be focusing on the methods specifically related to year 1 tonight.

New Maths Curriculum The national curriculum for mathematics aims to ensure that all pupils: become fluent in mathematics 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 or routine and non-routine problems with increasing sophistication, including breaking down problems into a series of simpler steps and persevering in seeking solutions Lets have a go – put in a problem

Our EVERSLEY maths VISION Enjoy Persevere Succeed At Eversley Primary School we want all children to enjoy maths and have a love of learning maths. We encourage them to understand that a problem is only a problem if they cannot solve it, to persevere, to have self-belief and the determination to succeed in solving the problems in order to be the best mathematicians that they can be. Share with parents the new maths curriculum.

Expectations by the end of year 1 Areas of learning- Areas of learning come under these 7 areas There are a number of objectives your child will be assessed with under each area and these will be given to you to take home at the end of the evening. This will give you a overview of the maths that you can support your children with.

Mastery v Acceleration promotes procedural learning at the expense of deep understanding shallow mastery leads to apparent success without students developing the depth and tenacity that is needed for long-term progression. shallow acquaintance can also lead to learners feeling insecure
