Aims
To explain how we teach your children +,
-, x and ÷.
To give you ideas of how you can help your
children at home.
How did you solve these?
• 157+65=

Maths lessons
• Emphasis on mental calculation
• Children are encouraged to work
mentally, using jottings to support their
thinking
• Encouraged to use more formal written
methods only for calculations they can
not solve in their heads
• Maths through problem solving
By the end of Key Stage 2 we want
your children to…
• Recall key number facts eg number bonds
to 10 and associated bonds to 100.
• Have good understanding of the 4
operations
• Have an efficient, reliable method of
calculation for each operation
• Apply what they know
• Use a calculator effectively
