What do we learn in Numeracy
Mathematics
Maths is taught daily across the school. Our maths curriculum includes all aspects of the National Curriculum and is designed to provide a link between mathematics and the real world. Links are also made between different curriculum areas whenever possible. We want the children to be confident in applying mathematical skills, concepts and knowledge and to be able to solve problems sensibly and systematically. Children are encouraged to use mathematical vocabulary to question and confidently explain their reasoning. We aim to foster a culture of independence and resilience where the children learn from their mistakes.
We ensure that we develop the children’s number fluency skills and mental maths through structured teaching and repetition. Practical learning is an essential component of our approach to teaching maths. We want all children to enjoy maths and feel challenged from their own starting point in every lesson.
Our Maths curriculum is enriched and supported with the use of online programs such as Mathletics and Times Table Rockstars, which supports the learning of all areas of the curriculum. We also annually celebrate Number Day with a variety of whole school games, fun activities and house competitions.
