I would be grateful for some advice from year 6s teachers. My son is going into year 6 in September. I have done a lot of work with him over the lockdown and the past few weeks. His basic understanding of maths concepts is reasonable and he is able to complete White Rose work at the expected level. However, the speed with which he works at is incredibly slow. I have persisted with learning tables and he knows them but his recall is not instantaneous and he becomes quite anxious when pressurized. What would be an effective way to help him. I am a teacher/ parent but have mainly worked with younger children. I have not used Mathletics but wonder if this might help him speed things up. He responds quite well to online programmes in which he can chart his progress and where there are badges/ rewards etc. Is there a maths equivalent that is anyway similar to Bedrock?
If you have any ideas I would be grateful.
