Hi, I wondered if anyone had any tips on how to teach basic maths at home for a yr 1 5 year old child? My son seems quite confused about some basics and the school say they don't have time to recap. I'd like to support him when he does his homework with teaching him the same way they do plus explaining things in different ways, perhaps with physical cues. I think its so important to get the basic concepts right and if you misunderstand something in maths you get further and further behind and your confidence goes pretty quick. I'd appreciate any basic guide on methods to use to teach early years maths. Thanks
