Primary numeracy

Description:
Teachers understand that in each class they have high ability students who require particular attention to support their ongoing academic development. Catering to this group is part of a teacher's commitment to differentiation. However, research shows that this group of students can miss teacher time as the needs of other students seem more pressing. In this course, an experienced primary teacher will demonstrate some key numeracy strategies and some practical numeracy tasks that can be readily implemented in the upper primary classroom.

Standards addressed:

• 1.5.2 Differentiate teaching to meet the specific learning needs of learners across the full range of abilities
• 2.5.2 Literacy and numeracy strategies

Course Length: 1 hour
