Welcome to the Room 2 maths wiki.

This is the area where we will keep our maths games.

Information for parents: We are spending a lot of our time this term developing our number knowledge.
 * ordering numbers
 * numbers before and after
 * number bonds and number families
 * rules like 10 +
 * skip counting
 * basic facts
 * subitising - seeing and hearing patterns in maths

While it seems we are spending a lot of time on these, it is important that these skills are so embedded that they are instant, in order to assist problem solving and using number strategies, which we will work on while we work on number knowledge.

In order to assist instant recall we are going to be using a site called xtramaths for the children's basic facts homework. Your child will be given a sheet explaining their own individual passwords and how to work through the stages of [|xtramaths]. I will be emailed your child's progress to my school email each week and as the children master a stage I print out a certificate for them.
