Little Maths Helper

1. Little Maths Helper A collection of fun online games, tips and strategies to support your child’s learning in maths.

2. March 2011 Dear Parent/Carer, Please find enclosed a booklet detailing links to online maths activities which you can use at home to support your child’s learning. The left hand column details specific areas of maths that the links relate to. For example, if your child struggles with addition, there are some links for related online games which they can play to strengthen their knowledge. As part of our continuing professional development as class teachers within the Dunbar schools cluster, we have decided to pilot this resource in the hope that it will provide a useful link between what is being taught in the classroom and your child’s individual learning needs. It is anticipated that, if you decide this is a useful resource, it would be further developed to include a greater variety of maths topics and related online resources. We would be very grateful if you would take the opportunity to choose a few activities over the coming weeks with your child and then provide us with some feedback. There is no expectation that you will trial all of the links, just those that are of current relevance for your child. We would suggest that you would spend no more than 10 minutes per night on the activities. We can also make the booklet available electronically. Please advise if you would like this to be sent this as an email attachment. Please return the booklet with any comments as soon as you can. Thank you for your time.
