The methods and approaches to teaching maths at school have changed over time, so the work your child does in Reception might look very different from your experience of maths as a child. To best support your child, it’s important to try and use the same methods that your child is learning at school.

Email & Gmail

Email is short for 'electronic mail'. Similar to a letter, it is sent via the internet to a recipient. An email address is required to receive email, and that address is unique to the user. At school we use Gmail.

How to use Gmail

Email etiquette is about respect and common sense. The same respect and professionalism you expect others to show to you is also crucial when writing your own communications.

Email etiquette tips

Tips for success

Very regularly you should:
Thoroughly memorise and revise key vocabulary from each topic
• Practise spellings in French
• Practise understanding and asking questions
• Practise key grammar points including verbs in the different tenses.

Reading and listening:
The longer texts or audio tasks, which tend to get you the highest grades, can appear daunting, but they don’t need to be. Just be aware that:
• You will answer some of the questions in English, some in French. Some with will multiple choice answers in either language.
• You should expect some unfamiliar language and deduce meaning at times.

Writing and speaking:
• Express and justify opinions whenever you can
• Use a variety of vocabulary including complex structures
• Include references to different time frames (present, past, future)
• Give as much detail as you can and develop your answers as much as possible.
• In speaking, make sure you practise regularly taking care with pronunciation and intonation.

Listening:
• Use the few minutes prior to starting wisely. Think of the vocabulary you know on the topic and may be about to hear.
• In listening, each question is repeated twice. Listen once and don’t rush your answer. You should listen for key words and the information around the key words. Take time to process all you have heard.

Reading:
• In reading, the questions will usually follow the order of the text i.e. you will find the answer to the first question towards the beginning of the text and the answer to the last question towards the end of the text.
• You should read the texts and instructions very thoroughly paying attention to the ‘little’ words such as negatives, tenses and opinions. Make sure you don’t rush when answering and that you read the sentence where you think the answer is thoroughly and to the end.
• You should take care with pronouns (Je/il/elle…) as well as tenses when answering in French in the reading.

As outlined in the DfE subject content document, through their work in design and technology students must apply relevant knowledge, skills and understanding from key stage 3 and 4 courses in the sciences and maths.

They should use the metric and International System of Units (SI) system but also be aware that some materials and components retain the use of imperial units.
