Maths fact fluency targets – below is a copy of the Maths Passport your child will be working towards completing whilst with us. If you are looking to prepare your child for transition to Reception you may want to look at the end of year expectations and help your child work towards these over the summer.
A lovely story to share with children:

Home Learning
We would love to see children completing their work at home and would love to hear from you. Please send this to office@mountcarmel.worcs.sch.uk and they can be forwarded to us directly. Happy learning 🙂

Maths Calculation Policies
Please find below our school calculation policy for each of the four operations. Each policy covers both the mental and written strategies taught in each year group. Whilst the documents show the strategies used across all year groups to enable you to see how children will progress, please focus on the strategies used in your child’s current year group. The calculation policy has been designed to develop children’s conceptual understanding of each operation and as such we ask that children are not taught strategies which are used by children further up the school.
