On Thursday night we invited parents and carers along to find out about our world of Maths at Mid Calder Primary. As you know Maths is on our school improvement plan for the second year, we began in the hall discussing with parents our journey with maths so far. Then the Numeracy shared with us some information about SEAL (stage of early arithmetical learning) and how parents can support at home.  This was followed by workshops in classes demonstrating what a typical maths lesson looks like and how parents can support their child at home. A big thank you to everyone who supported the event and to our house and vice captains who helped with the smooth running of the event.

Feedback from parents included:

• ‘These evenings are great to get ideas as to how to help my child at home’.
• ‘Our daughter talks a lot about the strategies she is learning about’.
• ‘My child is very enthusiastic when doing Maths homework’.
• ‘This was a good insight into how my child is learning and developing within Maths’.
• ‘We can see the improvements being made, keep up the good work’.
