P5 Mental Maths Skills
In P5 we have been further developing our mental maths skills by learning a range of strategies for addition. We are becoming very confident using the appropriate maths language when we are talking through our strategies. Once all of the strategies have been learned we will then look for the most effective strategy for a given calculation.
