NUMERACY WORkSHOP Year one

Mathematics and Numeracy Number and Non Number Practical experience (questioning) Mathematical language Written work (show understanding independently) Workshops

Number Non Number Understanding number and number notation Patterns, relationships and sequences Addition & Subtraction Money Non Number Handling data Space Shape Length Weight Time

Practical experiences Importance to do before we record. 10 Workstations covering different areas. If you do/experience then you will remember

Mathematical language

Written work Practical experience must come first Shows understanding Promotes independent learning Can spot misunderstanding Promotes thinking skills Promotes problem solving skills Symbols of mathematics
