My son is in year 4 (summer born) and isnt confident with his maths.
If i sit an explain and concept to him and give him a few examples he'll get it but forget it a week later. Problem solving questions are hard for him: tom had 20 gifts, he loses 5 and wants to share the rest with his 3 friends, how much does each friend get. he won't know how to solve it
Last year he asked me to order some of the white rose maths worksheets and we sat down 2 - 3 evenings a week and once on the weekend and over the summer he completed the bulk of them. Even though he completed the worksheets and watched some of the videos, its like he has forgotten them. He put alot of effort into doing the worksheets.
He wants me to order the white rose workbooks for year 4 but I am unsure how useful they will do, he'll do them but forget a few weeks later and become despondent.
How should i be helpping him with his maths - would Bonds books or cgp be better? or an app like doddle maths or conquerormaths.
He needs to learn the concept and practice and practice so he fully understands.
