How To Help Your Child At Home
Maths is everywhere and it is easy to get your child to practice their Mathematical skills in lots of different situations.
Make sure your child knows their times tables - they are so important! Depending on the child, this can be done through games, songs, creating posters or reciting them while playing catch.
It is also important to give your child word problems to solve. Instead of asking them 'What is 3 +1?' you could say 'I have three bananas and you have one banana, how many do we have altogether?'
