White Rose Maths App

To support maths arithmetic strategies, there is a free app you can download. It is engaging, fun for children and it builds fluency and skill in addition and subtraction. It's predominantly aimed at KS1, however, I know it will support children in Hedegehogs as it covers the quick mental arithmetic strategies we learn and use everyday. Here are the details to find out more - https://whiterosemaths.com/latest-news/introducing-our-brand-new-app-1-minute-maths
