significant contribution to modern society and at Wood Ley we consider it to be vital for the life opportunities of our children. We strive to enable fascination and an excitement to discover mathematical concepts and to broaden children\u2019s knowledge and understanding of how mathematics is used in the wider world.<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>At Wood Ley we ensure children have transferable mathematical skills, the ability to reason and solve problems, and a well-developed vocabulary. We believe that the language of mathematics is international, the subject transcends cultural boundaries and its importance is universally recognised. We provide children with the opportunity to explore mathematics using a range of concrete, abstract and pictorial resources.<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Solving problems using numerical fluency is the basis of our mathematical lessons. We hope children experience a sense of awe and wonder as they solve a problem for the first time, discover a more elegant solution and make links between different areas of mathematics. We ensure that children leave Wood Ley with a logical and creative number fluency and with an ability to recall key number facts such as multiplication tables. We know that this is the strongest foundation we can give our children as their use of mathematics becomes more sophisticated.<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>We strive at Wood Ley, to ensure children are curious, ask questions and ultimately enjoy their maths lessons. Skills for learning are a high priority. For example being able to explain ideas and respond to feedback from teachers and peers are crucial to our curriculum. Being confident, resilient, able to persevere and show determination is at the core of what we want to achieve. After all, mathematics helps us to understand and change the world.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-0a34f5c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0a34f5c\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-eb85d84\" data-id=\"eb85d84\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1b01cdf elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1b01cdf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>What we do at Wood Ley<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p>At Wood Ley, we follow the White Rose Scheme of Learning from the early years through to year 6.\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/woodley.suffolk.sch.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Maths-Pathways-All-in-one-1-FOR-DROPBOX.pdf\">Here<\/a> is a link to our detailed maths pathways.\u00a0 We are incredibly proud of the maths learning that takes place in our school and regularly achieve well in the KS2 SATs which we are always incredibly pleased with!

It is at the teacher's discretion as to how they approach Early Bird Maths but for many it's a great chance for the children to show off their times tables and arithmetic skills.  The additional 20 minutes of maths each morning equates to an extra hour of maths a week, which is an extra 39 hours of learning maths over the year!
