Maths Curriculum information
What is Barvember? What’s the point?
Bar Modelling is a useful tool for helping children visualise and then solve maths problems. Even some of the most complex problems can be seen much easier when represented visually.
Barvember provides an opportunity for everyone to just do some maths.
Throughout November, we will be setting daily challenges for the children to try. Each attempt will one entry into a prize draw, where there are KS1 and KS2 prizes up for grabs!
Look out for the answers to each problem on our Barvember board in school the following day.

Calculation policy
Here is our calculation policy, where you can see the different methods used in each year group for the children to secure the basic 4 operations.
Times Tables
By Year 4, children should be able to recall their multiplication facts up to 12 x 12. To help them develop these skills, children can log on to www.ttrockstars.com using their username and password. On Times Table Rockstars, pupils can practice their tables. They are then able to improve their Rock Speed and climb the Rockstar ranks! The online games reward children with virtual coins for each correct answer, which they enjoy spending on upgrading their personal rock avatar.
