Maths in Year One 8.9.2020

For the first few weeks of Maths we are looking at basic counting to 20, ordering to 10, writing and showing numbers and adding and subtracting within 5 and 10. Please practice these skills with your children at home- particularly their number formation as we are finding lots of children are getting their numbers the wrong way round! We encourage you to try and practise all of these different skills with your child at home as it will really help them with their Maths learning. Every week I will be posting what our Maths learning is so that you can see our Maths Journey throughout the year.Don't forget to get involved at home and ask your child all about their learning. You can help your child in lots of different ways such as:

using real life objects to count, add, subtract and say the number for .
using flash cards for numbers, words and quantities.
Number trackers or lines are also really useful for counting.
Writing numbers on cards or paper and asking children to order them.
Asking children to write different numbers to 20, focusing on formation.

Fact Fluency Sheets to download and practice at home

In Year One we have to learn our 2,5 and 10x tables as part of our national curriculum and learning. Practice makes perfect so please ensure that you practice times tables daily with your child. In Year One they also need to count fluently in 2's, 5's and 10's and it really helps them with their daily Maths work if they can do this. I will be also be sending home weekly Maths fluency tasks with different sums to 5, 10 and 20 for your child to practice. The more they practice these tests the quicker they will become at sums and Maths fluency.!I have uploaded all the fact fluency sheets I will be sending home in various links below so you can also download them from here and practice them at home as much as you like! I have also uploaded a picture below of the times tables Year One need to know and learn.
