Quick retrieval of number facts is important for success in mathematics. It is likely that children who have problems retrieving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division facts, including number bonds and multiples, will have difficulty understanding and using mathematical concepts they encounter later on in their lessons. At Knypersley we ensure that children are given ample opportunities to develop fluent recall of number facts. Mental/oral starters and warm ups are used at the start of lessons in a variety of ways to ensure prior learning is revisited and reinforced. In Foundation Stage and Key Stage One the children also take part in daily counting. In Key Stage Two times tables and number facts are taught daily to develop fluency. The following websites can be used to support this at home.
