2. What are the aims of teaching Maths at Sarisbury?
Mathematics is all around us in the world and environments we live in, making it a vital tool for everyday life. We recognise its importance and through our aims, support every child in becoming a confident and proficient mathematician.
Our aims are:
To develop children’s confidence in their mathematical abilities by providing exciting, positive learning experiences of mathematics.
To develop children’s efficiency by providing them with a range of mathematical strategies they can choose from.
To develop children’s reasoning skills through ‘mathematical talk’ and applying skills in different situations and real life contexts.
To develop children’s problem solving skills.
We ensure that your child’s Maths learning is active, fun, enjoyable, engaging, hands on and enriching.

5. How do we teach Maths in Year One?
Jack found 20 magic beans. He decided to give 3 to his Mum. How many did Jack have left?

6. How do we teach Maths in Year Two?
Kristoff has no more than 20 carrots in Sven’s bag. He counts his carrots in groups of 2. He has 1 left over. Then he counts his carrots in groups of 5. He has 2 left over. How many carrots could Kristoff have? Is there another answer?

8. To reach Early Learning Goal in Reception, what must an ‘expected’ child achieve in Maths ?
Number Early Learning Goal:
Children count reliably with numbers from 1 to 20, place them in order and say which number is one more or one less than a given number. Using quantities and objects, they add and subtract 2 single-digit numbers and count on or back to find the answer. They solve problems, including doubling, halving and sharing.
Shape, Space and Measure Early Learning Goal:
Children use everyday language to talk about size, weight, capacity, position, distance, time and money to compare quantities and objects and to solve problems. They recognise, create and describe patterns. They explore characteristics of everyday objects and shapes and use mathematical language to describe them.

9. Number and Place Value
Count to 100 forward and backwards beginning with 0 or from any given number. Counts in twos, fives and tens from zero. Reads and write numbers up to 100. Identifies one more and one less / ten more and ten less from any given number.
Addition and Subtraction
Represents and uses number bonds ( = 20) and related subtraction facts within 20 (20 – 19 = 1).
Fractions
Recognises, finds and names a ½ as one of two equal parts of an object, shape or quantity.
Measurement
Compare, describes and solves problems for lengths, heights, weights and capacity. Tell the time to the hour and half past the hour and draws the hands on a clock face to show these times.
Shape
Recognise and names common 2D and 3D shapes.
By the end of Year One, what must an ‘expected’ child achieve in Maths ?

10. By the end of Year Two, what must an ‘expected’ child achieve in Maths?

11. How can you support your child at home?
Make Maths as practical as possible, use and move things.
Link Maths to real life experiences as it is vital the children see why they need maths.
Play games such as snakes and ladders, ludo, dominoes, Uno
Websites / Apps
