HELP!! MATHS SATS ARE UPON US KS2
ITS NOT TOO LATE TO HELP YOUR CHILD
KS2 Sats are being taken all over the country this month(13th-17th May). How can you help your child prepare? Apart from not panicking, you could really help your child by printing out a couple of old SATS papers and going over them. Its time to forget homework, its time to PRACTISE. Old papers are available online at:

Use the following technique:
1. Work through a couple of papers taking your time and discussing it with your child to ensure that they understand the maths. You can do this in a couple of sessions. You will be pleasantly surprised how easy you will find them yourself!
2 Take a break for a day or two. Then do a timed test. It doesn't matter if its the same paper. This time you are aiming for speed and accuracy.
3 Finally give lots of praise as encouragement as you push them out of the door!!
