Maths
We are proud to be a Maths Hub school and are part of the continuing programme to develop teaching for mastery in maths in primary schools. This project is fully funded by the DfE and provides professional development opportunities for our teaching staff.
Maths at Havannah Primary School teaches an understanding and appreciation of the world around us. It aims to stimulate a child to calculate fluently, reason and problem solve and is both a key skill within school, and a life skill to be utilised throughout every person’s day to day experiences.
At Havannah Primary School we aim to provide pupils with a rich and varied mathematics curriculum and high-quality teaching to produce individuals who are fluent in mental and written methods, confident reasoners, systematic thinkers and resilient problem solvers. Therefore growth mindset is developed throughout the learning process and enables pupils to grow in resilience and confidence.
The building blocks to mathematics begins with ample opportunities to develop children's’ understanding of number, measurement, pattern, shape and space through varied activities, including the use of the outside environment. This continuous provision allows them to enjoy, explore, practice and talk confidently about mathematics.
Above, is an overview of units covered for each year group throughout the academic year.
At Havannah Primary School we use MyMaths to aid lessons and to set children homework that supports their learning. The children also love Times Tables Rock Stars, especially the weekly battles set. Links to both are below. Log in details will be in your child's planner, if there are any issues with this please speak to your child's class teacher.
