Bite size Key Stage 2 covers three main areas, English, Maths and Science, broken down into small, easy to understand bites or snippets of information.   This information is based on Maths.

Maths

In Key Stage 2 Maths education, children learn about why numbers and formulas matter.  Becoming a skilled maths student involves having a good knowledge of sums, averages, shapes, graphs and measurements.
Knowing simple sums and learning useful calculations can help a child with everyday tasks.
Children at Key Stage 2 level learn about addition, subtraction, decimals, factors, multiples, fractions, money, multiplication, division, percentages and using a calculator.
Another important topic in maths is grasping the concept of shape, space & measures, by learning about angles, lines, graphs, shapes and useful everyday measurements, including 2d and 3d shapes, symmetry and time. 
Handling Data is the final aspect of KS2 Maths, here pupils will learn about frequency diagrams, probability, and mode, median, mean and range variations.
