We have created a few bonus problems for you to use this week with your KS2 classes. We hope they are useful. As always post your classes solutions on twitter tagging @whiterosemaths. We still have some prizes to give away. Good luck!

It’s back! White Rose Maths Problem of the Day. Along with the usual PDFs we have added a powerpoint that will be updated each day. The calendar is hyperlinked to take you straight to the new problems and answers are provided. Full worked solutions will be provided at the end of the month. For the month of March, each day we will publish some reasoning and problem solving questions for use with your classes. Practice is crucial to maths success, and our questions are designed to support your daily routines. A new question will be posted each evening for the next day, and cover topics and areas that your pupils can expect to see as part of their SATs. If you tweet a picture of your classes hard at work solving a problem to @WRMaths, you will be entered into our special weekly prize draw during March 2018! Please ensure that any photos you tweet have relevant permissions, as we will be retweeting a selection of these. Thank you for your continued support. Enjoy - The White Rose Maths Team

Thank you to everyone who are using our new schemes of learning. We are really pleased with the response and grateful for all the feedback. Over the last few months we have been working hard on producing new assessments to align with the new schemes. We have listened to feedback from teachers and schools and tried to respond to what they were telling us. The main change is that the assessments now cover related objectives from previous year groups material. So, for example our Y6 assessment does not just cover the Y6 objectives – which is what we had previously done. Instead it now covers content from other year groups too. We have done this after speaking to schools and leaders and we also recognise this reflects SATs assessments. We hope these assessments are useful for you and your students. Writing assessments is always a difficult task but we have tried to write questions that will help you identify strengths that students have and areas that need additional work. Please take a little time to read this document as it contains guidance on how to get the best out of the assessments. As always, we would be delighted to receive feedback from you. We always look to improve the work we are doing and we appreciate whatever comments you may have. The White Rose Maths Team

Year 5 - Yearly overview

Year 4 - Yearly overview

Welcome to White Rose Maths’ new, more detailed schemes of learning for 2017-18. We have listened to all the feedback over the last 2 years and as a result of this, we have made some changes to our primary schemes. The new schemes still have the as the old ones, but we have tried to provide more detailed guidance. We have worked with enthusiastic and passionate teachers from up and down the country, who are experts in their particular year group, to bring you additional guidance. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to the work of White Rose Maths. It is only with your help that we can make a difference. We hope that you find the new schemes of learning helpful. If you have any feedback on any part of our work, do not hesitate to get in touch. Follow us on Twitter and Facebook to keep up-to-date with all our latest announcements. #MathsEveryoneCan

If you were to ask anyone in the White Rose Maths team what the most common request from teachers has been over the past few years, there is no doubt they would reply with the following question, ‘When are you releasing something for Reception?’ Drawing together a team of EYFS specialists and teachers, we are excited to release our brand new Reception Schemes which we hope will support Reception practitioners within their own settings. Taking the end of year Early Learning Goals into account, we have created a progression to support teachers in building up the key small steps in learning throughout the year. When working with Reception teachers, our team found that teachers wanted clearer guidance in what they needed to cover within the year. Our progression helps support the coverage whilst still providing flexibility with how long you spend on different topics depending on your classes’ needs. The progression is then broken down into small steps which give more detailed guidance on how to approach adult-led teaching of concepts, and how to enhance your provision areas to support teaching. Within the small steps, we have focused on key questions to support all adults within the setting to unpick children’s understanding and to enable them to move forward with their learning. The suggestions for learning could be used for short adult-led inputs or group activities with the children. We hope you find the guidance useful #MathsEveryoneCan

These overviews are designed to support a mastery approach to teaching and learning and have been designed to support the aims and objectives of the new National Curriculum. The overviews: • have number at their heart. A large proportion of time is spent reinforcing number to build competency. • ensure teachers stay in the required key stage and support the ideal of depth before breadth. • ensure students have the opportunity to stay together as they work through the schemes as a whole group • provide plenty of opportunities to build reasoning and problem solving elements into the curriculum. We believe that all children, when introduced to a new concept, should have the opportunity to build competency by taking a CPA approach. Our schemes of learning reflect this approach. Concrete – children should have the opportunity to use concrete objects and manipulatives to help them understand what they are doing. Pictorial – alongside this children should use pictorial representations. These representations can then be used to help reason and solve problems. Abstract – both concrete and pictorial representations should support children’s understanding of abstract methods. Need some CPD to develop this approach?
