Maths help in the palm of your hand.
Every stage/year of your child’s journey through the maths syllabus is covered below.
In this section you will find general information that covers the language of the four operations across K-6.
In Early Stage 1 (Kindergarten) your child will learn about and use known facts to explore mathematical problems and develop fluency with mathematical ideas.
In Stage 1 (Years 1 and 2) your child will continue to develop mathematical fluency, explaining their thinking and the strategies they choose to use.
In Stage 2 (Years 3 and 4) your child will learn about and use efficient mental and written strategies, developing increased fluency and confidence.
In Stage 3 (Years 5 and 6) your child will continue to demonstrate increased fluency when choosing and using mathematical techniques, strategies and terminology.
We exist to empower every parent in Australia to confidently support their child’s education at home.
Maths and maths homework no longer needs to be a negative experience.
Reseach shows that when parents get involved in maths, everyone wins.
“Positive parental homework involvement is beneficial to students and is associated with higher levels of student achievement.”
(Hoover-Dempsey et al., 2001)
“Parents have a powerful influence on homework. Their influence comes from … the way in which they encourage their children to engage with homework. Student literacy and numeracy outcomes can improve when they engage in active conversation with family members.”
(Epstein et al., 1997)
“Both parents and teachers have an important role to play; their roles do not replace but rather complement and reinforce the other’s role thus providing the student with a consistent message ... Thinking of parents and teachers as ‘partners’ refers to this mutual effort
toward a shared goal.
It also implies shared responsibility of parents and teachers for supporting students as learners.”
(Christenson & Sheridan, 2001)
Maths and maths homework doesn’t have to be a negative experience.
