© Michael Tidd, Our new calculation policy What is a calculation policy? Why do schools need one? What is a calculation policy? Why do schools need one? How is it useful to you as parents?

© Michael Tidd, How can you help your child at home? Talk to them about what they have been doing at school. A lot of parents comment that their children learn maths in a completely different way to which they did. However you will find there are lots of similarities. If you are unsure of the method, ask your child to explain how they are going to carry out a calculation. If they have learnt it, they will be able to do this confidently. If not feel free to come and ask a member of staff, or you can consult our new calculation policy. Do their home learning with them, it is a great opportunity to share positive learning experiences and to teach your child to be persistent and resilient when they find things difficult. By doing this you are helping them to become a better learner. Talk to them about what they have been doing at school.

© Michael Tidd, Activities that you can do at home with your children Counting rhymes e.g 1,2,3,4,5 once I caught a fish alive. These are great and are the beginnings of counting and understanding simple addition and subtraction. Counting rhymes e.g 1,2,3,4,5 once I caught a fish alive. These are great and are the beginnings of counting and understanding simple addition and subtraction. Count the stairs with them as they walk up and down. Ask them what shapes they can see when you visit somewhere, or around the house. Collect things when you are out on a walk and ask them questions as you do. E.g. we want 10, how many have we got? How many more do we need?

© Michael Tidd, Activities that you can do at home with your children Take them shopping with you ask them to pay with money from your wallet purse. If it is a short shop, could they work out how much it will cost and what the change will be. Cooking, working on a recipe and budgeting and weighing and measuring out ingredients is a great practical application of maths.

© Michael Tidd, Activities that you can do at home with your children Gardening, planting bulbs or plants the correct distance apart. If you need to work out how much paint you need to paint a wall, or how much carpet/lino/laminate flooring you need, this is all area and good for measure and times tables. Gardening, planting bulbs or plants the correct distance apart. If you need to work out how much paint you need to paint a wall, or how much carpet/lino/laminate flooring you need, this is all area and good for measure and times tables. Ask them to design their dream bedroom. Give them a budget and a list of things that the bedroom must have. Then give them an Argos catalogue or similar to work out how they are going to spend the budget and on what. If you want to go a stage further, help your child to make a 3D model of their bedroom and kit it out, but make sure they have set the scale correctly
