LIBERATED THINKING • Financial Management • Personnel Issues • Personalised Learning • Target Setting • Strategic Planning
SMART TECHNOLOGY MOVING ON - Sympodiums • Simultaneous display on large screen projection system • Conceptual leap
SMART TECHNOLOGY • Pen-equipped interactive screen • Uninterrupted focus on visual stimuli/learning • Teacher can be located anywhere • Notes, annotation over computer image • Teacher or pupil input
The Highwayman: modelling alternative ending from viewpoint of the Landlord. Lastnight was the worst of my life. Aftera pleasant evening with a friend I returned home. Itwas very strange……the door into the Inn was wide open. I had told my daughter, Bess not to open up until I returned.
The Highwayman Thescene before me was one of devastation. Fourof King George’s men lay on the floor.Theirblood was pooling around them. Tim, the ostler, was slumped beside them. Hestared, seeing nothing, his eyes huge marbles.
The Highwayman Therewas no sign of Bess. Inever saw my black-haired daughter again.
83 x 26 The GRID method is introduced first because it demonstrates to children that 83 x 26 is solved by partitioning the two 2-digit numbers and answering four separate multiplication questions: 83 is partitioned into 80 and 3 26 is partitioned into 20 and 6
83 x 26 80 3 20 6
83 x 26 80 3 20 6
83 x 26 80 3 20 6
83 x 26 80 3 20 6
83 x 26 80 3 20 6
83 x 26 = 1,600 60 480 +18 2,158 3 80 20 6
