DD2 is in year 3 and finished yr 2 on level 3 in Maths SAT. Since then I've been a bit concerned with her lack of progress. She still tends to do addition and subtraction by counting forwards or back on her fingers and is making little progress with timestables. They are now moving onto division and I don't feel she gets it. It has to be said her teacher is not the most organised and I can't see any system to the way he's teaching tables. He throws two large dice each week apparently to test them on tables, but doesn't set them as homework to learn.
I'm going in to talk to him on Thursday. Any advice on the best approach, what to ask and what she should be doing or am expecting too much of her? This teacher managed to make DD1 thoroughly confused about maths for several years when she had him, so I'm keen to prevent this and am happy to do whatever necessary to help at home
