Class Overview

Unleash Your Child's Inner Mathematician: Engaging Maths Lessons for Key Stage 2 (Ages 7-9)

Build a strong foundation in Maths with our interactive and age-appropriate curriculum!

Across Key Stage 2, our exciting Maths lessons equip students with the essential building blocks for a lifetime of mathematical confidence.

What We Cover:

  • Number Whizzards: We start with the basics – whole numbers, addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division – and gradually progress to fractions, decimals, and percentages, ensuring a strong understanding of place value throughout.
  • Measurement Masters: Students become experts in measuring length, weight, capacity, and time using various tools. We'll also introduce them to concepts like area and perimeter, preparing them for more complex calculations.
  • Shape Detectives: From exploring properties and types of shapes to mastering spatial reasoning and transformations (flips, slides, and turns), your child will develop a deep understanding of geometry through hands-on activities and engaging visuals.
  • Statistics Superstars: We'll introduce the exciting world of statistics! Students will learn how to collect data, organize it using tally charts and pictograms, and interpret the information they gather, fostering critical thinking skills.

Delivery Methods:

  • Engaging Activities: Lessons go beyond rote learning. Teachers use activities like colourful blocks for place value, fraction strips for visualising fractions, or games for practising multiplication.
  • Interactive Discussions: Encouraging explanations, justifications, and questions fosters a deeper understanding.
  • Problem-Solving Challenges: Word problems that apply mathematical concepts in real-world contexts make learning relevant and engaging.
  • Visual Aids: From manipulatives (counters, blocks) to diagrams and charts, visual aids enhance understanding, especially for spatial concepts like geometry.
  • Varied Techniques: Teachers may use a mix of methods, such as whole-class explanations, group work, and individual practice, to accommodate different learning styles.

Teachers may use multiple methods, such as whole-class explanations, group work, and individual practice, to accommodate different learning styles.

By incorporating these elements, Key Stage 2 Maths classes create a dynamic and stimulating environment where students actively participate, build confidence, and develop a strong foundation in mathematical skills.
