MyMaths Online Homework and Revision Guidance For Parents

Your Child has been registered on to the maths revison website MyMaths.co.uk. This should help them to structure their revision and enable you to see how they are progressing. Your child has already been given a letter explaining how to access the materials at home.

To get to the materials you first need to log on to the site

Go to www.mymaths.co.uk or click the mymaths logo above and login at the top of the homepage. Login details have been provided to all pupils.

Each of the lessons in the library is complemented by an Online Homework. Your child will be directed to do these tasks by their teacher. Alternatively they may have been asked on one of our Booster Packs. When you open an Online Homework or Online Worksheet you will be prompted for login details. These have been issued individually to all pupils.

If no lessons are appearing then you have a Pop-Up Blocker installed. You MUST allow MyMaths.co.uk to use Pop-Ups,

There is a system of Traffic Lights for each of the Worksheets and Homeworks to indicate how successful your child has been.

If a green light appears next to the topic, they have good skills in this area.

If an amber light appears they still have difficulties.

If a red light appears they need to go back and relearn the topic. Try the lessons again.

Your child`s teacher may have set them a task. Access their task sheet on the main menu to find out. You will also find their results here.

It will also tell you what questions your child could and couldn`t do, how many times they have attempted the worksheet and when they last tried it. You can help your child by encouraging them to visit the site and revise for their exams. If you have time, you might want to work through some of the topics with them. The lessons are clear and easy to follow,

An effective strategy is to pretend that you have forgotten how to do it and ask them to show you how. Putting them in the position of "teacher" is good for their confidence and gets them to talk about their thinking.

You should also be clear about the support that the school offers. Please see your child`s maths teacher if you have any questions.
