1. Maths Workshop November 2017
How to help your child

2. Aims of the meeting
To provide you with a greater understanding of how Mathematics is taught in school. To particularly focus on the methods of the four operations and mental arithmetic. To show you the different types of questions that pupils will be asked in different year groups. To help you to understand how you can help your child at home.

3. The Aims of the Mathematics Curriculum

4. Lower KS2-Years 3 and 4
The focus in these years is that pupils become fluent with number and the four operations, including number facts and place value.

22. Number
Number bonds are the window to success in KS2 and it is vital that your child knows these securely as they enter this phase. 
By the end of Year 4, your child is expected to know all their times tables up to 12 x 12. To ensure this, we practise the tables daily and explore connections between the tables, e.g. to find 6 x 8, we know 5 x 8 is 40, so 6 x 8 is one more 8, so is 48. 

23. Order of Learning Times Tables

24. Learning Times Tables

25. Order..
The first times tables taught are:
X 10, x2 and x5

26. Order..
The 2x, 4x and 8x are all doubles of each other so we teach this fact.
For the 9x tables, we use the 10x tables. E.g:
5 x 9 is 5 x 10 minus 5.
3x, 6x and 7x tables will then be covered. Always remind your children that the times tables can be swapped around so 7 x 4 =28 and they have already learned this in 4 x 7.

27. How can you help? Stick to learning one times table at a time.
Chant the tables with your child then allow them time to write them out.
Once secure, test your child on the tables in a random order.
Keep reminding your child that 3 x 4 is the same as 4 x 3.
Play times tables games.

37. Adding Fractions With Same Denominator
Daniel uses the following representation to show that: 7 + 5 = 12 8 16 + =
When you add denominators that are the same number, it remains the same in the answer. So or 1
Is he correct? If not, explain why. 7 + 5 = 12 8 1 2 de
