Each month and week we will be looking at a required learning area for Key Stage 1 maths in a fun, easy-to-understand way. We will look at slides I have prepared for you that explain each concept and then we will complete worksheets to show you have understood what you are learning. Don't worry if you don't 'get it' at first - let me know if you are finding something tricky as I have other ways to help you understand and it's much better for you to tell me than to worry about getting things a bit wrong (*Parents, please do let me know if your child is struggling with anything). The areas covered are outlined below: 

IMPORTANT NOTES:
