Maths For Mums And Dads

Why does my child look blank - or have a tantrum - when I demonstrate ‘long multiplication’? And what on earth is ‘chunking’? In this lively talk for parents of primary children, Rob Eastaway gently guides anxious parents through modern methods of teaching arithmetic, explaining why things have changed, and what you can do to make maths more enjoyable at home. Packed with tips, games and ‘tricks’, it’s a chance to see a side to maths that many parents didn’t know existed. This talk is ideal as an after-school, parents-only talk, but can be adapted to be suitable for parents and children (aged 6+).
