Kudos to Mr. H and the team at @PSMInfants for hosting an amazing parent workshop on Mental Maths last night! 👏🏼💯 I'm sure their pupils (and parents) will become Maths Genies in no time! 🧞‍♂️🧠 #MentalMaths #MathsFluency #Edtech
Brilliant to have so many parents and children attend our @arithmagicians workshop last night. Great work from Mr H in preparing a paper resource to help with the concepts as families become familiar. Excited to see the impact on the children’s mental arithmetic. #primarymaths
