Mastery Curriculum
At Mosslands School we use the Mathematics Mastery programme. We believe that all children can enjoy and succeed in mathematics. We will help you to develop resilience and confidence in maths.
You will be given time to explore and investigate new ideas. You will use objects, pictures and numbers to make connections in different ways. All our classrooms have lots of manipulatives for you to use to help you understand the maths you are learning.
Maths is a wonderful subject as it helps describe the World we live in.
Maths is everywhere!
Coastguards use maths to find their way to people in trouble. There have been stories about people being rescued in the local news over the last few weeks.
Maths is used in Engineering – that can be Mechanical Engineering, Structural Engineering and Technological Industries such as Broadcasting.
