Maths
At Hillside we understand that supporting and helping your child with their maths homework is very important to you. Therefore, staff have made a series of short video clips that show clearly the methods and language we use to teach the children maths. There are several examples demonstrating how we teach each of the basic operations.
We hope these will be helpful, however if you are still unsure feel free to talk to your child's teacher.
