Dear Parents and Carers,
Maths learning doesn’t have to stop at the classroom door! One of the best ways to build confidence and enjoyment in maths is through playful, hands-on activities at home. This week, we’re sharing a simple and engaging task inspired by NRICH—a trusted resource developed by the University of Cambridge that promotes problem-solving and curiosity in mathematics.
