Title: Numeracy Parent Teacher Workshop


1
Numeracy Parent Teacher Workshop
  • Led by John Wajdner (Numeracy Advisor)
  • Assisted by Miss L. Barratt Mrs D. Hyde
  • 4.11.2008
  • 630 800pm

2
Aims for tonights meeting
  • To enable parents/carers to find out about the
    mathematics their children are doing,
    particularly the way they subtract mentally.
  • To enable parents/carers to help their children
    at home.

3
Firstly, thank you for a great response and a
super turn out.

Darts Game
We first played a game of darts, which is a good
game to play, getting children to add the scores
mentally. This can then progress to subtracting
the score from a starting number.
8 2 10 10 9 19
11 6 17 17 3 20
Points to start with 50
50 19 ? 50 20 30 30 1 31
50 20 ? 5 3 2 so- 50 30 20
5
Recent Reports Key Findings
  • Involving parents
  • More emphasis on oral and mental
  • Teach for understanding

6
NNS Framework for teaching mathematics has a
structured approach to calculations
  • Mental counting and counting objects
  • Early stages of mental calculation and learning
    number facts, recording in a number statement
  • Working with larger numbers and informal jottings
  • Non-standard expanded written methods
  • Standard written methods

Now were counting in 0.7s.
Were counting in 7s.
7
How Do You Do It?
Now how would I solve this mentally?
Both parents and staff worked together to solve
these calculations, then discussed their methods
of working.
  • 246 64350
  • 15x19 486-235
  • 1724 360360
  • 2.5x12x2 8006-2993
  • 1502 1.51.6
  • 70x6 572-49
  • 273613

8
Key Skills Needed
  • bonds to 10, 20, 100 etc.
  • tables
  • doubling and halving
  • x 10, x 100, 10 etc
  • place value
  • the size of a number and where it fits on the
    number line

9
We played a number bond game, finding pairs of
numbers with a total of 10, 20, 100 etc
I can play this at home with my children.
10
Number lines game
  • Aim of the game
  • Get 3 numbers together along a number (do NOT
    have to
  • be 3 consecutive numbers ie 34, 35, 36)
    line first.
  • Rules
  • Get a blank number line.
  • Player 1 roll 2 dice to make a 2 digit number.
  • Position the number on the number line.
  • Player 2 roll 2 dice to make a 2 digit number
    then position it on the number line trying to
    block player 1.
  • Continue the game until one player has 3 numbers
    together.

Player 2 would win this game as they have 3
number together.

Tables
7 x 5 35 5 x 7 35 and therefore 35 7 5
35 5 7
John modelled how times tables are so important
to know and how they help with mental
calculations.
Oh yes, now I see.
Faced with the question 700 x 5 ? Use what we
know. 7 x 5 35, so 70 x 5 350 and 700 x 5
3500.
12
Higher or Lower
  • This game we played with the 7 x table.
  • John showed us a number in the 7 x table and
    parents and staff had to guess higher or lower
    according to what number was shown.

Subtraction Targets
Year 1
Year 2
Year 3
Must Understand subtraction as take away and
find a difference by counting
up. Should Subtract mentally a single-digit
number or a multiple of 10 from any two-digit
number. Could Subtract mentally combinations of
one-digit and two-digit numbers.
  • Must
  • Begin to relate
  • subtraction to taking
  • away.
  • Should
  • Understand
  • subtraction as take
  • away and find a
  • difference by
  • counting up.
  • Could
  • Subtract mentally a
  • single-digit number or
  • a multiple of 10 from
  • any two-digit number.

Must Subtract mentally a single-digit number or a
multiple of 10 from any two-digit
number. Should Subtract mentally combinations of
one-digit and two-digit numbers. Could Subtract
mentally pairs of two-digit whole numbers.
14
Subtraction Targets
Year 5
Year 6
  • Year 4

Must Extend mental methods for whole-number
calculations, for example to subtract one
near-multipleof 1000 from another (e.g. 6070
4097). Should Calculate mentally with integers
and decimals U.t - U.t. Could Consolidate and
extend mental methods of calculation to include
decimals, fractions and percentages.
Must Subtract mentally combinations of one-digit
and two-digit numbers. Should Subtract mentally
pairs of two-digit whole numbers. Could Extend
mental methods for whole-number calculations, for
example to subtract one near-multiple of 1000
from another (e.g. 6070 4097).

15
Subtraction strategies
  • Counting on and counting back
  • Near multiples of ten (9, 11, 19, 21 etc)
  • Equivalent calculations
  • Using known facts

16
What can you do?
  • Be positive about maths, even if you dont feel
    confident about it yourself.
  • Talk and listen to your child about their work in
    maths. It will help your child if they have to
    explain to you.
  • Share maths activities they take home.
  • Play number games
  • Help with learning number facts
