Maths at home

Our Calculations Policy sets out how we teach the four rules of calculation (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) throughout the school. This is often useful for parents to refer to, as it may be very different to the methods we were taught at school

Timestables

At Ryarsh, we have created a bespoke times tables curriculum to help ensure that our children become highly confident and fluent in this key area of mathematics. This progressive approach begins in year 1 and finishes at the end of primary school, not when the national multiplication check is carried out in year 4. You can download our times tables curriculum here:

Times Tables Curriculum

There are various ways to support the learning of multiplication tables in class and at home. From January in year 2, children begin to use timestable rockstars either on a laptop or a tablet device to help learn their multiplication tables.

To find out more (including how details on how to download the app) you can visit their website:

You can also support your child at home by downloading some of the multiplication quizzes that children will complete during the term. Please use the links below to download your own copy. Each time the document is opened/downloaded, a new set of questions will be generated.
