Year 3/4 Maths Workshop

On Thursday 16th January 2025, Porters Grange once again hosted workshops for parents and carers of children in years 3 and 4. The family event, hosted by mathematics subject lead Mr. Rasor, took a deeper look into why times tables are important, how we teach times tables at Porters Grange, the introduction of ‘precision teaching’ in year 4, as well as information about the upcoming MTC (Multiplication Tables Check) for year 4 pupils. The children then had an opportunity to spend some time exploring the various game modes of Times Tables Rock Stars with their parents and carers – showing off their amazing times tables recall speed and accuracy.

100% of those parents and carers who came along agreed that the workshop was informative. With some saying it was a ‘great session’, ‘very helpful’, ‘interesting’ and ‘really enjoyable’.

A huge thank you to all who attended; we had an excellent number of parents come along - it means a lot to the children and they had a lovely time.
