Schools and You
Maths
Maths is more than numbers.
It also involves shapes, direction, position and measuring.
You can help your child build their confidence and develop strong maths skills by including fun and easy activities into your child’s daily routine. Support from you at home can often make the difference between your child enjoying or being scared of maths at school.
Remember – your child is counting on you and the little ‘lessons’ will really add up!
