Key Stage 2 Maths Skills Buster

Key Stage 2 Maths Skills Buster is a new resource we have purchased to support the year 5 and 6 children in their learning of Maths.

For Year 6, there are topic boosters and past papers with video tutorials to help target specific weaknesses. For Year 5, there is a mini-maths (less than 5 minute) video for every day of the year to help establish a daily routine and thinking-outside-the-box puzzles. The resources can be used on PCs, laptops, tablets and mobile phones. Just open the resource below and once opened click on the booster unit you wish to use.

In English and Maths the year 6’s are continuing to work hard in preparation for their SATs tests.  The Year 5 children are also working really hard developing their Spelling, Grammar, Punctuation, Reading and Writing skills in English.  They are also continuing to make progress in terms of Number and Place Value and Geometry and Measures in Maths.

Don’t forget to keep logging in to Education City here in order to play educational games and activities.  If you have forgotten your login then please ask at school and we will get it for you.
