Maths Passport
Maths Passport
Maths Passports are a strategy for improving children’s mental maths capabilities. The scheme is aimed at developing children’s instant recall skills. i.e the speed with which they are able to recall number facts.
Children begin with practising the Learning Targets for Europe and then move onto the Middle East. You can practise these targets at home. Children are assessed every 2 weeks to ensure they are retaining their knowledge. They are done verbally and should be able to answer them quickly and fluently.
