FAMILY MATHS
You can help your children at home by involving them in mathematical activities and talking to them about mathematics and its everyday uses. Be positive, praise your child's success! Encourage your children to have a go at measuring, calculating, counting, estimating and solving problems. Invite children to investigate and make discoveries for themselves. Encourage them to find their own answers. Don't be quick to tell them the answers.
