Following on from the Parent Workshops some parents and carers have suggested that a glossary of the key English and mathematical vocabulary we use in school would help them to support their children at home.
http://www.amathsdictionaryforkids.com/ This is an online maths dictionary, which provides clear explanations and examples of key vocabulary.
https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/244216/English_Glossary.pdf This is a link to the English national curriculum glossary. The glossary includes all of the technical grammatical terms used in the programmes of study for English, as well as others that might be useful. It is intended as an aid for teachers, not as the body of knowledge that should be learnt by pupils. However, it may be a useful reference tool for parents and carers to help identify the definition and seek exemplification of terms your child maybe using or be expected to use.
