Oakworth Primary School and Nursery

Mathematics

Maths at Oakworth Primary School is taught daily in a discrete lesson and through a mental arithmetic session. The teaching and learning is based on the National Curriculum and is supported by the teaching of mental arithmetic skills and our calculation policy. We ensure that our children are proficient in their use of mathematical vocabulary and that they become fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics. Our aim is to give them the ability to solve problems, to reason, to think logically and to work systematically. Our curriculum encourages children’s positive attitudes towards the subject and makes them aware of the relevance of mathematics in the real world.

World Maths Day

We had a fantastic time celebrating our love for maths on World Maths Day! Each year group explored a different storybook filled with engaging, math-inspired activities. During break time, the playground buzzed with excitement as children took part in games and challenges involving number hunts, Roman numerals, pattern recognition, direction mazes, shapes, estimation and symbols.

We had the chance to step into our very own Rockstar photobooth! Dressed as our favourite Times Tables Rockstars characters, we struck our best poses — and we looked absolutely AMAZING!

Times Tables

Year 4 had a lovely morning learning the 6 times-tables with their parents. They played lots of games and completed activities that they could also play at home.

Please find attached, all of the games they played at the workshop. Please feel free to edit these to any times table your child wants.

Here are some of the fantastic children taking part in our fun Times Tables Club!

TT Rock Stars

Times Tables Rock Stars is a series of carefully sequenced activities of daily times tables practice. When it comes to times tables, speed and accuracy are important – the more facts your child remembers, the easier it is for them to complete harder calculations. Times Table Rock Stars is fun and challenging and is designed to help pupils master the times tables. For children in Year 2 and above, they will have passwords that they can use to access their TT Rockstars account.
