# Maths

The TWHF ENRich Maths curriculum enables learning for each year group that is planned from the relevant National Curriculum objectives. Sourced from the **Can Do** Maths resources, these are blocked into themes or units and then sequenced into concise and progressive manageable steps, to create a coherent mathematical journey through the learning. New learning is taught through the daily lessons whilst regular practice and review (MOT) sessions are used to practise, consolidate and revisit previous learning. In addition, daily opportunities to consolidate number fluency are built in to the day to allow for the efficient, automatic recall of key number facts and procedures.

#### Main Maths Lesson

To develop RICH knowledge and skills, pupils will be exposed to daily, explicit teaching of new mathematical learning. New learning has been designed to ensure a coherent progression through the curriculum. This enables all pupils to develop a deep and connected understanding of mathematics so that they can apply it in a range of contexts. Representation and structure has been considered so that teachers can carefully select representations of mathematics to expose mathematical structure. Variation is embedded into new learning, to draw closer attention to a key feature of a mathematical concept or structure. Pupils are simultaneously exposed to problems and reasoning, which enable mathematical thinking and is central to how pupils learn mathematics.

Typically, Maths lessons have 4 parts, which are all about the same mathematical concept (manageable step). The parts are taught in the following order:

![](https://eucattachment.freshservice.com/inline/attachment?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJpZCI6NTIwNjI4NTA4NjEsImRvbWFpbiI6InR3aGYuZnJlc2hzZXJ2aWNlLmNvbSIsInR5cGUiOjF9.o3smIBa4P1uPQ4lrU7981wAvXSL4bdacnZBKWoZddMA)

Children’s progress through the parts of the lesson, depends on their depth of understanding. Throughout lessons, teachers will recognise children’s misconceptions as they arise and address them immediately to enable those pupils to progress through the lesson independently. Children who demonstrate that they do not have a secure understanding of the concept, will be supported by adults or resources to enable them to achieve at least some success within the lesson.

#### Maths on Track (MoT)

*Prior Learning Session* - Pupils are exposed to daily teaching and deliberate practice of tasks that activate prior learning. Through daily MOT sessions pupils will have opportunities to retrieve and use prior knowledge so that it can be easily remembered and recalled during New Learning sessions. MOT sessions will also include pre-teaching, weekly arithmetic practice sessions and 'Keep-up' opportunities for children who need longer to fully grasp a new concept or skill.

*Number Fluency Sessions* - Short efficient, accurate recall of key number facts and procedures is essential for fluency, freeing pupils' minds to think deeply about concepts and problems. To support the development of this, the TWHF ENRich Maths Curriculum has been designed to offer daily opportunities for pupils to revisit and recall number facts and procedures through short, high-quality tasks and activities. Revisiting previously learned knowledge and skills allows pupils to have the flexibility to move between different contexts and representations of mathematics, to recognise relationships and make connections, and to choose appropriate methods and strategies to solve problems.

#### Resources to support Maths

Children will use a range of manipulatives during maths lessons. Included below is information on the key manipulatives used in school:

#### ​​​​​Supporting Maths at Home

This year we have purchased a new online service to support your child’s maths education. The creators of Times Table Rock Stars have produced a platform for boosting addition and subtraction skills, called Numbots.

Numbots is an online game and playing little and often will significantly improve children’s recall and understanding of number bonds and addition and subtraction facts. These are critical foundations in maths so we are excited by the impact Numbots will have.

Children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 are expected to play Numbots at least 3 times per week as part of their home learning and will work their way through the Numbots levels that get progressively harder.

<https://youtu.be/24sqgVgwBOg>

Children in Year 2 also have the option of logging on to TT Rockstars, where they will be able to practise their 10, 5 and 2 times tables and collect coins for correct answers which they can exchange for new clothes and instruments for their avatar.

Children in Year 3 to Year 6 have the access to TT Rockstars, where they can practise all their times tables through a range of different games.
