Maths Parent Workshop Autumn 2016

(Mention raffle ticket!!) Aims The national curriculum for mathematics aims to ensure that all pupils: become fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics, varied and frequent practice with increasingly complex problems, so that pupils develop conceptual understanding and the ability to recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately. reason mathematically by following a line of enquiry, making relationships and generalisations, and developing an argument, justifying or proving them. can solve problems by applying their mathematics to a variety of problems, breaking them into a series of simpler steps and persevering!

Year One-Key Objectives Number and Place Value count to and across 100, forwards and backwards, beginning with 0 or 1, or from any given number count, read and write numbers to 100 in numerals count in multiples of twos, fives and tens given a number, identify one more and one less Addition and Subtraction represent and use number bonds and related subtraction facts within 20 Fractions recognise, find and name a half as one of two equal parts of an object, shape or quantity

Measures compare, describe and solve practical problems for: length/height, weight/mass, capacity/volume & time Time tell the time to the hour and half past the hour and draw the hands on a clock face to show these times. Shape recognise and name common 2-D shapes (e.g. Square, circle, triangle) recognise and name common 3-D shapes (e.g. Cubes, cuboids, pyramids & spheres)

Year Two-Key Objectives Number and Place Value count in steps of 2, 3, and 5 from 0, and in tens from any number, forward and backward compare and order numbers from 0 up to 100; use and = signs use place value and number facts to solve problems Addition and Subtraction solve problems with addition and subtraction, using concrete, pictorial and abstract representations Solve problems with addition and subtraction applying his/her increasing knowledge of written methods and mental methods where regrouping may be required. recall and use addition and subtraction facts to 20 fluently, and derive and use related facts up to 100

Multiplication and Division Recall and use multiplication and division facts for the 2, 5 and 10 multiplication tables, including recognising odd and even numbers. Solve problems involving multiplication and division, using materials, arrays, repeated addition, mental methods, and multiplication and division facts, including problems in contexts Fractions Recognise, find, name and write fractions 1/3, 1/4, 2/4 and 3/4 of a length, shape, set of objects or quantity and demonstrate understanding that all parts must be equal parts of the whole. Money solve simple problems in a practical context involving addition and subtraction of money of the same unit, including giving change

Shape compare and sort common 2-D and 3-D shapes and everyday objects, identifying and describing the properties including the number of lines of symmetry and the number of edges, vertices and faces. Position and Direction Use mathematical vocabulary to describe position, direction and movement, including movement in a straight line and distinguishing between rotation as a turn and in terms of right angles for quarter, half and ¾ turns. Statistics Ask and answer questions about totalling and comparing categorical data.

At Greenleas, we believe progression is not simply a matter of ticking off what pupils can do. Instead we are concerned with how well they can do things, their fluency and their depth of understanding. Therefore we think it is important to track two things: a) the breadth of learning (i.e. how many examples of learning we can see) b) the depth of learning (i.e. the fluency of pupils, how well they apply knowledge and skills and their depth of understanding )

Children working ‘above expected’, will cover greater breadth of learning and ‘deeper’ learning. They will not be moved to the next milestone. They will always stay within their year objectives.

Staying within year band objectives

Real money (value of coins, change, addition and subtraction, counting in 10ps, 2ps, 1ps, 5ps) Dominoes (matching, addition, counting) Dice (quick mental addition, number recognition) Rulers (used as number lines) Chocolate bars (division, finding fractions) Board games e.g. Snakes and Ladders, Ludo, Monopoly(counting on or back, problem-solving) Egg boxes (multiplication and division skills) Sports equipment e.g. beanbags, balls and hoops (measure, counting, estimating). Lego, Smarties, Buttons (counting, addition and subtraction, multiplication and division skills)
