1. Numeracy and Maths at Crown Primary WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE?

2. What happens when my child moves class/stage? AT THE END OF THE YEAR  At the end of the session teachers prepare notes to pass on to the receiving teacher(s)  The previous and new teachers get together for an oral pass on of information  All teachers share which parts of the curriculum have been taught

3. What happens when my child moves class/stage? AT THE START OF A NEW SESSION  In August teachers assess their own pupils using a baseline tool  Teachers look at groupings from previous session  Teachers look at what has been taught last session and find gaps in teaching and learning, comparing this to the baseline assessment data

4. Now we are ready!  At Crown we use the Scottish Heinemann Maths (SHM) scheme of work  Focus on the teaching of strategies  Practical activities  Textbook pages to help assess knowledge and understanding  Textbooks are numbered 1-7 but this does not correspond exactly to class stages e.g. book 1 is for P1 and P2, book 2 is for P2 and P3, book 3 is for P3 and P4, etc

5. What does a lesson look like?  The class will be grouped according to their academic ability (this could change depending on maths topic) and would ideally be into 3 groups but this depends on the spread of ability in the class  At the start of the lesson the teacher will begin a mental warm up and then introduce (refresh) the topic (e.g. fractions)  The pupils will go into their groups to complete their task(s) rotating around the stations set up  Working with the teacher  Textbook / written piece of work  Game to use and test skills (this could include using the computer)  Practical activity to practise skills/strategy
