'Pure mathematics is, in its way, the poetry of logical ideas.'

Albert Einstein

Here at Alumwell, we know the importance of developing children's skills and understanding of mathematics, as well as building confidence and resilience in the subject. That is why we try to use a variety of resources, games, songs and strategies to help all learners reach their full potential. 

On this page, you will find everything you need to know about how we teach maths. From what we cover, to how we are combatting the monotony of learning our Times Tables! 

Our teachers use White Rose Maths to help them plan and resource lessons. Click on the link below which will take you to the White Rose Maths progression map. This map will show you what your child should know by the end of each year and what they'll be learning next. 

Times tables are a really important part of Maths. They are essential when learning about many areas, including fractions, percentages and division problems. That is why we are so passionate about providing our children with the opportunity to practice their times tables using Times Tables Rock Stars. This is an online game which tailors the teaching of times tables to each individual. It monitors their speed and accuracy as well as providing a heat map of results for every times table fact. The game is very competitive and our children love to challenge each other AND their teachers. TTRS can be used on any device, and so we would encourage parents to provide opportunities for this learning at home. 

Times Table Rock Stars provides all the learning your child may need. However, if for any reason you would like a variety of resources, please find additional worksheets in the links below. 

If you require a paper copy of any curriculum information, please contact the school office.
