Maths
for younger children is very practical - for example dividing their
break time fruit into fractions and patterns and then of course eating
it! For older children maths may be linked with the topic for the term
and is always taught in the most practical way possible, for example
recording plant growth in the garden or making a cart to help the cook
transport the lunch! Children are taught strategies to work out
problems and as their understanding develops they begin to record their
maths in both informal and formal ways as they progressively tackle the
different areas of mathematics. Park School, Park Road, Dartington, Totnes, Devon TQ9 6EQ Telephone 01803 864588 Email: park@schooldartington.freeserve.co.uk |
