In Maths this term we shall be focusing on: Place value – knowing the value of each digit in a number. Calculations : addition and subtraction skills Shape : properties of 2D and 3D shape We will apply skills to a range of situations and develop perseverance and resilience when problem solving. How you can help at home: Encourage your child to practise their times tables (2x, 3x, 5x, 10x). Provide opportunities for using money and telling the time. Give them time to play maths games, either on the internet or with the games that can be loaned out from our school library. Give them time to play the games on 'Sumdog' twice a week (these are website accessible maths games, free for our pupils to use). Each child now has a Sumdog log in attached to the last page of their yellow reading record.
