Primary Maths Grade 1 – 1B

Description

As the leader in the European Programme for International Student Development (PISA) report into the academic outcomes of European countries, the Finnish method of teaching maths to young children is gaining traction in other nations. This online collection of course material is designed to give UK children access to this proven programme.
What’s Different About It?
Learning is made fun and relevant by putting the child as an individual at the heart of the experience. Children learn through specially designed interactive puzzles and games that put the mathematical situations children encounter in their day to day lives firmly in the spotlight. This means learning is practical and easy to relate to the real world rather than boring and theoretical. With 321 math! 1B, the focus is on Numbers up to 20, Telling Time, Addition within 20, Mathematics and Money and Numbers up to 100.
How Does It Work?
Access to the content is online, meaning children can learn at their own pace at a time and in a place that works best for them. In addition to the engaging games and puzzles, kids stay motivated by receiving rewards when they successfully complete tasks.
