Maths
Term 2
This term, in Year 6, we will be focussing on Fractions
Through the weeks, we will be working on fractions of amounts, adding and subtracting fractions and multiplying and dividing them.
Below are some helpful step by step guides to aid you with supporting your child at home.
This BBC Bitesize webpage has some excellent written guides and videos

Below is a really useful link, explaining place value and how to support at home
Please help to support your child with their maths by encouraging them to log into their Times Tables Rockstars Account - regular practice of times tables is essential in supporting all other areas of maths
They are also set a weekly maths challenge (on a Friday) on Math Shed. This links to the learning we have been doing in class that week.
All children have been given new logins and should be ready to go!
