Numeracy Support
Numeracy is the ability to understand and work with numbers.
Top tips
- Be positive about maths. Don’t say things like "I can’t do maths" or "I hated maths at school"; your child might start to think like that themselves.
- Point out the maths in everyday life. Include your child in activities involving maths such as using money, cooking and travelling.
- Praise your child for effort rather than talent - this shows them that by working hard they can always improve
