Useful maths documents
Times Tables Rock Stars
At Baddow Hall Junior School, all of our pupils have access to Times Tables Rock Stars (TTRS). This interactive program targets pupils' learning gaps across the times tables.
At the end of year 4, all children nationally sit the 'Multiplication tables check' which tests their knowledge of tables up to 12x12, with the expectation that all children know all tables and can recall them within 6 seconds.
Each week, our fastest and hardest-working TTRS pupils are rewarded in our Celebration Assembly.
Mathseeds
For some of our pupils, we have subscribed to Mathseeds, an interactive teaching tool which targets specific learning areas for our pupils. It is aimed at filling the gaps in number sense and place value to ensure that our pupils have the foundations of mathematical knowledge in place to support learning across the maths curriculum.
Mathseeds has an option for parents to make their own personal subscription for their child if this is not something school have already provided.
Purple Mash
All pupils at BHJS have access to Purple Mash, which is predominantly used in school for computing lessons.. There are many excellent maths games that can be found on the Purple Mash website which target all areas of the curriculum, with games suitable for children of all primary year groups.
These games can be completed on a computer, tablet or phone and also notes children's progress through each topic.
