It's time for your November Power Maths update! This month we will be talking about our latest blog on Power Maths assessments, as well as how you can go about sharing digital Power Maths resources with your class. We'll also be focusing on our free and handy Pinpoint Maths online Times Tables Check, to prepare children for the Multiplication Tables Check.
Schools using the Power Maths Progress Tests can input data into the Markbook in ActiveLearn, where they track and analyse children's progress over time. For each test, the Markbook also shows an 'all schools average' score based on all data inputted.
This blog provides a list of all the Autumn term all school average scores, plus the scores for the End of Year tests which haven't appeared in the Markbook yet because the sample size is still slightly too low. There is also some comparison of scores this year and last year with the pandemic having caused so much disruption.
Did you know you can send Power Maths resources for children to access via their own logins? This might be invaluable when children miss lessons through illness or having to isolate at home, but it could also help you with setting homework or providing access to digital resources on devices in school.
This blog takes a quick look at the resources you might want to share and how to do it.
Use our free Pinpoint Maths online Times Tables Check to prepare children for the Multiplication Tables Check, and you can use it in school or share the link below for pupils to access at home.
For Year 4 children, the All times tables from 2 to 12 option is similar to the MTC assessment, but there is also a 6, 9, 11 and 12 times tables option for practising just the tables introduced in Year 4.
Year 3 children can practise using the 3, 4 and 8 times tables option.
Year 2 children can practise using the 2, 5 and 10 times tables option.
