Designed for Year Four Pupils and Beyond
This website is designed for pupils in Year 4 and above who need to strengthen their foundational maths skills.
The key topics covered include place value, addition and subtraction, and multiplication and division.

Why These Topics Matter
The rationale behind choosing these topics is simple: they are fundamental and lay the groundwork for more
advanced maths skills. For instance, if a pupil does not grasp place value, understanding decimals becomes significantly
harder. Likewise, mastering fractions is impossible without a solid understanding of multiplication and division. These areas
are crucial because, without a firm grasp of them, meaningful progression in maths is unlikely.

Why Choose This Website?
You might wonder why you should use this website when you can create an account and use Khan Academy. While Khan
Academy is an excellent resource, this website offers unique benefits: ease, speed, and peace of mind.

Tailored for the National Curriculum
I have carefully selected a smaller number of videos that specifically target knowledge gaps in foundational maths topics.
These topics are chosen with the National Curriculum in mind, clearly indicating which areas of the curriculum are covered
up to the end of Year 4.

Make Maths Learning Manageable and Fun
Using this site makes the journey of improving your child’s maths skills more manageable, quick, effective, and fun.
Limitations
While this website is a valuable resource for teaching essential maths skills, it currently does not provide practice materials for reinforcing those skills. This is due to our limited financial and time resources. However, the site is an excellent tool for teaching and strengthening a child’s understanding of key maths concepts. For example, if your child or pupil is struggling with a core topic such as place value, watching and rewatching the relevant videos can be highly beneficial.
In the future, we aspire to include learning resources that will allow children to not only learn but also practice what they’ve learned.
How To Use Video Lessons
1. Watch a video tackling a specific maths skill for targeted learning.
Or
2. Watch the videos from start to finish to learn all the foundational skills.
The approach you choose should depend on your child’s maths ability.
Regardless of your approach, I hope these videos will help strengthen your child’s maths skills.
Happy learning!
