KM Tutoring: Ripples to Waves

Year 6 SATs are done — and children absolutely deserve a break. ☀️

But Summer 2 can be busy - full of transition days, productions, trips and exciting end-of-primary events, which sometimes means key maths skills aren’t used as often.

🤨If your child has just finished SATs, you might be thinking: “The last thing they need is more maths!”

🫶🏼I understand — which is exactly why these sessions aren’t about extra work.

These small-group ‘Ready for Year 7 Maths’ Sessions are designed to:

✔ revisit key Year 6 skills
✔ prevent confidence dips over Summer 2
✔ prepare for common Year 7 expectations
✔ make the move to secondary feel less daunting

💪🏼Think of it as a confidence boost before September. No pressure. No SATs. Just keeping skills ticking over and building confidence for September.

Some amazing feedback from Year 6s that I’ve been working with…

I’ll miss some of them who won’t be carrying on with me but they’ve been amazing to work with.

Now I have some spaces available for new pupils so get in touch if you’re interested in some extra support.

Times tables can really hold children back as they move up to year 6.

If you’d like extra support for your child to help them master times tables check out my small group. Through games, songs and rhymes well make sure your child is much more confident with their tables and open up so much more of the maths curriculum for them.

Spaces are already getting booked so get in touch quickly to secure your child a place or find out more.

SATs QotD: reasoning with prime numbers

TOP TOP: Always encourage your child to put their knowledge down on the page to help reduce mental load - yes, even if they’re very confident mathematicians! It helps to reduce/eliminate the “silly mistakes”.

SATs QOtD: finding a percentage of an amount.

There are likely to be several of these kinds of questions on the arithmetic paper, varying in difficulty. This is one of the more easy questions; next week I’ll share a harder example using the same method.
