In this session participants will get the opportunity to explore and use a variety of maths games, (including dice, playing cards, dominoes and spinners) that can be easily differentiated to be used with all classes of the primary school. We will also explore the benefits of a game-based paired maths project in schools and outline how such a project could be initiated.
In this webinar, Shannon Ahren will discuss the importance of creating a classroom culture where discussion and mistake making is encouraged as well as present my tricks for improving students' attitudes towards problem-solving in maths. By the end of the webinar, teachers will have the tools they need to help their students succeed in Section B and beyond.
In this webinar, Dr Lorraine Harbison will share lessons from the literature on effective ways to develop and assess critical numeracy skills. She will also offer practical guidance and ideas applicable across all educational levels, from early years to post-primary.
