Maths in Year 6

How do we teach the four operations to students?

Formal methods Addition – Column addition Subtraction – Column subtraction Multiplication – Short and long multiplication Division – short (bus stop) and long division

Addition:

Subtraction:

Multiplication (long):

Division (bus stop):

Division (chunking):

Arithmetic Children are encouraged to estimate answers, use formal methods to solve then check their answers using inverses. Ask children how they have worked something out if they have used mental calculations, to explain the method that they have used or to check their answers without using a calculator.

Times tables Important for many areas of mathematics. Can be practised written with a given amount of time, verbally whilst walking/driving. Linked division facts are also important.

Mastery and Greater depth The new curriculum puts much greater emphasis on children using skills in context and developing ‘mastery’ of mathematical skills. Mastery doesn’t mean harder sums or just moving the students onto KS3 work! The focus is on children explaining what they are doing, apply their learning to other contexts and obtaining a greater level of understanding. It also means that children become better at explaining their reasoning to others and having the resilience and perseverance to approach a variety of problems. Mastery ability does not always correlate with what we would previously consider ‘more able’ students as it requires many different skills.

Non-Mastery Questions

Mastery Questions

What does this mean for schoolwork? - Greater emphasis on word problems (often linked to topic) - Applying taught skills in unfamiliar contexts. - Problems that involve discussions of reasoning in a group. - Longer problems that involve systematic working, teamwork and resilience. -Lots of asking students HOW they know the answer to a question and being told to explain their reasoning.

Mathematical Discussion Prompts in Class

SATs SATS consist of: -1 Arithmetic paper. No context written problems focussing mostly on the four calculations, fractions, percentages -2 Reasoning papers. Word problems and applying reasoning. Explaining HOW they solved these problems. - A deeper understanding of maths is therefore a vital skill when approaching these tests.

Resources you can use to support your child at home -CGP Revision books. Condense entire topics into more manageable chunks and have funny pictures to make them accessible. -Mathletics and Times Tables Rockstars online. -Supporting children with homework and asking questions that stretch them. -Songs online can be a fun and engaging way to revise a topic together. Get the children to explain what the lyrics mean. If you need a quick recap we recommend: https://www.theschoolrun.com/ Khan Academy videos on Youtube. (Some of these would also be suitable for students) Help your kids with Maths by Carol Vorderman
