  1. Developing teachers’ mathematics subject knowledge in early years settings and primary schools to improve the attainment of all pupils Liz Woodham, NRICH Project & Michael Hall, Open University 2014 - 2015

  2. Day 5 – 9 October 2014Led by Lynne McClure, Director of NRICH 9.15-9.30 Welcome 9.30-10.45 Fluency and reasoningBy engaging with tasks from the NRICH website, we will unpick what we mean by fluency and reasoning (which are the focus of the first two aims of the new National Curriculum), and consider how we can support children in becoming more fluent and being better able to reason mathematically. 10.45-11.00 Break 11.00-12.15 Problem solving This session will focus on how to embed problem solving (the third aim of the new National Curriculum) into our everyday practice using resources from NRICH. 12.15-1.00 Lunch 1.00-1.40 Split session Lynne will lead this session for the Maths Working Group while Liz leads the main group session. 1.45-3.10 Games are more than fillers By playing a variety of mathematical games, we will discuss their value in the classroom for a range of purposes. 3.10-3.15 Reflection

  3. Project aims • To strengthen teacher MSK and teacher MPK • To demonstrate the power of collaborative development focused on MSK, MPK and improving pupil attainment • To facilitate deep understanding of the principles underlying the mathematics curriculum • To embed high quality teaching materials into the curriculum • To develop self-sustaining structures through collaborative, peer-led development within schools and school-to-school

  4. In between face-to-face days … Don’t forget https://nrich.maths.org/haringey

  5. Common themes from mathematical needs identified on day 1 The following were flagged up by at least two schools: • Fractions/decimals/percentages • Problem solving • Place value • Time • Algebra • Word problems • Application of calculation strategies • Subtraction

  6. Today … • Register • Pupil questionnaire • Books
