We don’t believe in this!
“Engaging parents in supporting their children at home in a way that is consistent to how Maths is taught at school can lead to 4 months added progress each academic year.”

We DO believe in this!
Introduction…
Better understanding of aims/requirements of the year and to understand some of the terminology used
Practical ways to support my child at home with Maths
Just making sure I am on the same page as the children and can keep up!
Just a refresher on Heber’s approach
I’d love to know how you are teaching maths these days and what we as parents can be doing to help support at home
Agenda
Heber’s Approach
What is Maths Mastery?
Us…
Our children…
An approach to teaching and learning maths that aims for children to develop a deep understanding of Maths rather than memorising key concepts or learning by rote.
What is Maths Mastery?
Coherence - small steps for all
What is Maths Mastery?
Less of ‘what’s next?’ and more of ‘What can you do with that?’
Learn, Understand, Apply
Expectations in Years 3 and 4
Take a look at the expectations for you child’s year group. Any surprises?
Let’s introduce some language…
45 + 54 = 99
5 x 4 = 20
99 - 45 = 54
Let’s do some maths! - To the smartboard…
Online platforms…
