Can anyone recommend any good resources for help supporting this at home. Dts year 1, august birthday, got homework sheets yesterday called maths minutes. 15 sums to complete in 1 minute x 4. So 60 sums in 4 minutes!
There's no way they can do it - they have to work it out every time and don't know 'by heart' which is what they're obviously supposed to be able to do. They're getting distressed about it and don't want to be timed.
I've always bee pretty laid back about learning and think they'll get there in their own time but they want to be able to do this so any ideas appreciated!
I've looked on line but a lot seems to be American.
