  1. Curriculum EveningThursday 4th October Numeracy - Second Level P5 – P7

  2. Key Organisers of Maths • Number, Money, Measure • Shape, Position, Movement • Information Handling – collect/organise/ display/interpret • Problem Solving– select and use a variety of strategies and use across the curriculum. Solving word problems involving the 4 operations – CUBES approach

  3. Planning and Assessment • Planning using CFE experiences and outcomes • Planning using Renfrewshire pathways • Assessment using Scottish government Benchmarks • Formative and Summative assessment

  4. Primary 5 Second Level Number and Number Processes • Revisit all previously taught times tables • Round 3 digit numbers to the nearest 10/100 • Read, write and order numbers to 10,000s • Recognise tenths as decimal notation • Order numbers containing tenths • Add and subtract decimal numbers with one decimal place • Buy items within a budget • Find fractions of whole numbers • Add and subtract whole numbers up to 4 digits(with and without carrying, with and without exchanging) • Multiply and divide whole numbers up to 4 digits by a single digit(with and without carrying)

  5. Primary Six –Second Level Number and Number Processes • Recognise figures to 100000s (read, write, count and order) • Recognise hundredths as decimal notation • Order numbers containing hundredths • Add, subtract, multiply and divide decimal numbers with 2 decimal places • Round 4 digit numbers to the nearest 10, 100 and 1000 • Work out the most effective offer:- BOGOF and 3 for 2 • Calculate simple profit and loss • Know equivalence of percentages, decimals and fractions • Use add, subtract, multiply and divide to calculate the value of a letter in calculations(simple equations) • Multiply multiples of 10 e.g. 20 x 40 (Smile Multiplication)

  6. Primary Seven –Second Level Number and Number processes • Read, write, count and order figures to 1000000 • Round numbers containing tenths and hundredths to the nearest whole number • Use BOMDAS • Use negative numbers in context • Order positive and negative numbers • Add, subtract, multiply and divide with at least 4 digits and up to 3 decimal places • Recognise multiples, factors and prime numbers • Find equivalent fractions and simplify fractions • Equate fractions, decimals and percentages • Find percentages of numbers • Identify interest rates of various bank cards • Calculate the value of a letter in an equation using the 4 processes(simple and complex)

  7. Oral / Mental Maths Strategies Number and Number Processes • Big Maths Beat That – ‘Learn Its’ and weekly challenge in terms 2 and 4 to encourage accuracy and speed • P5 – 42 questions(60 seconds) P6 & P7 – 72 questions(100 seconds • Switcher facts – e.g. 7 + 6 =13, 6 + 7 =13 • Fact Families - 7 + 6 = 13 4 x 9 = 36 6 + 7 = 13 9 x 4 = 36 13 - 7 = 6 36÷4 = 9 13 - 6 = 7 36÷9 = 4 • Jigsaw numbers to 100 • Smile multiplication(30 x 70) • Coin multiplication(x1, x2, x5, x10, x20, x50, x100) • Whiteboards - show me ‘brainscanners’ • Getting pupils to explain their answers/ strategies used – Number Talks • Estimate / Calculate / Check – a reasonable answer?

  8. How can you help at home? • Practise ‘Learn Its’ / Times tables with your child. • Ask them to give switcher fact/ fact family of a given sum. • Numbers before / after, 10 more than 26, 34, number sequences etc • Time – read times on digital and analogue clocks, use 12 and 24 hr clock • Provide opportunities to count out amounts of money / calculate change. • Identify and use 3D shape names e.g. shopping items • Promote positivity around maths; minimise maths anxiety • Websites: Mad 4 Maths, BBC Bitesize Woodlands Junior School I.C.T. games, Sumdog, Purple Mash

  9. Questions? Thank you for coming along this evening! Please take a handout with you.
