  Homework and accountability to parents will become important aspects in the criteria for inspection of schools, but the home-school link needs to be approached with care. The Impact maths materials have been tested rigorously and used with great success in 43 LEAs. They are designed to work alongside any maths programme and to involve and inform parents so that their help becomes a routine part of children's mathematical education. In this book activities and games develop skills in counting, number recognition, ordinal and cardinal numbers, addition, finding the difference and taking away, grouping and early multiplication, sharing and early division, place value and number patterns. Each book contains practical activities on specific maths concepts that can be undertaken at home with adults, each activity comprises a note to the parents/carers explaining the purpose of the activity plus a response slip to be completed and returned to the teacher. Teachers' notes explain the maths concepts, suggest ways that the tasks might be undertaken at home and give ideas for extension activities.
