Number bonds

• Knowing number bond facts are crucially important to your child’s progression in their mathematics education. 
• Without a deep understanding of number facts children begin to struggle moving forward with new mathematical concepts. 
• Children who are secure in their number knowledge are able to get to grips with trickier tasks straight away and are far more successful. 
• ‘Knowing’ number bonds means a child will be able to recall any of the facts out of order within a few seconds, as well as knowing the matching subtractions fact. i.e.  3+17 = 20 but 2017=3 and 20-3 = 17.

There are websites and free apps that the children can use the help them learn their number bonds.

Times Table Rockstars

It has been wonderful to see so many children enjoying and improving their times tables knowledge since we launched TTRS earlier this year. 

Times tables are vital for children to become good mathematicians. Not only should children know their times tables up to 12 x 12 by the end of Y4 but they need to know their division facts that go with the times tables.

eg: 6 x 8 = 48   and 48 ÷ 6 = 8.

Times Table Rockstars allows children to make those connections whilst having fun.

To play TTRS at home, please follow the link.
