Year 6 Maths homework - I must be thick!
Comments

I would recommend again looking at his text book. That is going to be the way that his school teaches. It is important to know the proper way of doing long multipliation as per the Maths is Fun link because it is the only way he's going to be able to do more advanced maths and the other methods don't work when you're doing polynomial long division. I would have thought it best to start as you mean to go on, but then I'm not a maths teacher lol!
My son is in Y5 and we dont have text books either - all maths homework is done on-line! But at least the teachers should be able to pick up if he is struggling as we once its submitted he can't go back and change any incorrect answers!
To be fair, the school ran some evening sessions to show us parents how the kids are taught maths these days. Absolute God send, I now understand number lines through to the grid method!!:rotfl:0
