I've found that the maths books my kids have used in primary usually have examples at the start of the chapter - Maths Matters or Maths Challenge I think. I was able to learn the maths again with my own kids as they worked through the book in school. maybe ask the teacher or in your local book shop for their recommendations, usually fairly helpful I've found

You could also look up the curriculum online to see what's covered for each class - it's http://www.curriculumonline.ie/en/Primary_School_Curriculum/Mathematics/Mathematics.html
