Taking math out of isolation

Ask about the preschool's math program.

• What math program do you use at this school? Have you used it before and if so, how well did students learn? Do different classrooms use different programs? How much instruction is "set" by the program and how much is "flexible" and created by the teacher?
• How is the program designed to prepare children to succeed in kindergarten math? (Note: Once a child enters public elementary school, his or her performance is measured against educational standards and requirements specific to the state where he or she lives.)
• Do you blend math into other activities and subjects in the general curriculum? If so, can you give me some examples? (If not, why not?)
• How do you know when a child is doing well or needs some additional help? Do you screen children individually? Do you offer tailored math instruction to meet their needs?
• Have the teachers received instruction and support in how best to teach math? Do they have mentors to turn to for guidance? Do they know what to do if a child shows signs of struggle?
• Why did you select this approach to teach math? Is there research to support your use of this program? Do you use combination of different approaches? (Keep in mind that research into early math is a fairly "new" science, so there is far less research than there is for reading.)

Team up with the teacher

Homeschooling your preschooler, you're not a math-minded person, suggested tip, read books new ways.

Mastery for Maths Parent Workshop APP Monday 27th March 2017 Me in Virtute

Thinking is at the heart of Mathematics and therefore should be at the heart of mathematical teaching and learning.

Welcome • The National Curriculum – Mathematics • To know what is meant by a ‘Mastery’ curriculum • Why ‘Mastery’? • How does it work in the classroom? What does it look like? • Introduction to our new calculation policy • How can you help your child at home?

The aims of the new Maths curriculum • become fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics, including through varied and frequent practice with increasing complex problems over time, so that children develop a deep understanding and are able to recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately. • reason mathematically by following a line of enquiry, conjecturing relationships and generalisations, and developing and argument, justification or proof using mathematical language. • can solve problems by applying their mathematics to a variety of problems with increasing difficulty, including breaking problems down into a series of simpler steps and persevering in finding solutions.

What is Mastery for Maths? What does it mean to master mathematics? A mathematical concept or skill has been mastered when a pupil can represent it in multiple ways, has the mathematical language to communicate related ideas, and can independently apply the concept to new problems in unfamiliar situations.

Key Principles • One curriculum • Depth before breath – a rigorous and systematic programme that is developed to ensure every child can achieve excellence. • Deep understanding of a concept through a Pictorial, Concrete and Abstract approach (CPA). • Success for all - A child’s mindset is more important than prior attainment.

Teaching for Mastery Coherence Small connected steps are easier to take

Structure of learning A typical Mastery for Maths lesson would follow these 6 key parts: • Do Now Task • New Learning • Paired Language Development • Develop Learning • Independent Task • Plenary Same day or next day interventions would be used to pick up any children struggling with a concept. Deepening activities would be used to challenge more able children.

Teaching for mastery • Fluency: the ability to recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately. • Reasoning: explain their mathematical thinking • Problem solving: apply their knowledge to solve problems in varied contexts. For each mathematical concept, all children start with fluency, move onto reasoning (mastery) and can deepen their understanding by solving problems (greater depth).

Concrete, Pictorial, Abstract The mastery approach incorporates all of these to help pupils explore and demonstrate mathematical ideas, enrich their learning experience and deepen understanding. Concrete – Children should have the opportunity to use concrete objects and manipulatives to help them understand and explain what they are doing.

Pictorial – Students should then build on this concrete approach by using pictorial representations. These representations can then be used to reason and solve problems.

Abstract – With the foundations firmly laid, students should be able to move to an abstract approach using numbers and key concepts with confidence.

Mastery Calculation Policy

How can you help your child? • Mathematics homework is linked to what is being taught in class. Don’t do the homework for them but take an interest in what they are doing and help them with a concept if they are struggling. • Use every opportunity to ask your child questions and to explain their reasoning to you. • Look for maths around you. Telling the time, discussing the days of the week, talking about money or the coins needed to pay for items, how long things take to cook. • GROWTH MINDSET – help your child believe that everyone of us can master mathematics given the opportunity.

How can you help your child? KIRFs - Key Instant Recall Facts KIRFs (Key Instant Recall Facts) support the development of the arithmetic skills that underpin much of the maths work in schools. Children should know these thoroughly and be able to recall the facts instantly for their year group. By helping to develop these skills your child will be more able to access other areas of the maths curriculum such as calculation methods, problem solving and reasoning. We are currently in the process of updating these KIRFS so each year has specific targets for each term. Until then please refer to the overall fluency facts for each year group.

Unlocking Engagement in Middle and High School Math

A small shift in lesson presentation can encourage older students to actively participate in class.

The usual classroom symphony of settling students, chattering friends, and whispered gossip was abruptly interrupted by groans and jeers when they saw another dull math warm-up. As a new seventh-grade math teacher, I yearned to make the lessons engaging, but I felt constrained by the curriculum and struggled to stay ahead of the students, often learning the material the night before I taught it. In my focus on mastering the content, I had neglected the student experience, which, as their growing disengagement and defiance made clear, was lacking.

One day, amid the usual classroom hubbub, a sense of resignation hung heavy in the air. Students went through the motions of learning, some with glazed eyes copying notes verbatim, while others chatted animatedly about weekend plans. In stark contrast, “Sofia,” usually a beacon of participation, slumped in her chair, and “Josiah,” who often fidgeted, leaned forward intently, gesturing toward a crucial note on the whiteboard.

The usual mix of focused energy and playful banter felt off-balance, replaced by a quiet apathy. It felt like a repetitive performance, and I knew I had to offer them something more meaningful. I also knew that many of them genuinely wanted to learn, but the classroom disarray forced them into survival mode, simply hoping to avoid embarrassment or disruption.

My train of thought was interrupted by a knock at the door, barely audible over the din of student protest. My math coach entered with a smile, but my initial flicker of hope was quickly extinguished by the self-doubt gnawing at me, questioning my career choice.

A Surprising Discovery

With gentle encouragement from my coach, I launched into the lesson, my nerves on edge from a potent mix of disengaged students, my own lack of confidence, and the looming presence of an external observer. My coach had mentioned that many students indicated a desire to learn, and I held on to that thought as I wrote the first step on the board. Whether due to nerves or to sleep deprivation, I found myself pausing after each step, struggling to recall what came next. During these pauses, I noticed my students surprisingly engaged, gesturing and discussing what might happen next.

After a few instances of this, my coach pulled me aside and suggested I continue pausing and ask the students to predict the next step. The transformation was gradual at first, but it quickly spread throughout the room. Once-rowdy students were eagerly waiting, anticipating the next step. The rest of the lesson unfolded completely differently. I no longer felt burdened by the content, and the students thrived on unraveling the mystery.

Inspired by this experience, my coach and I sought to refine this concept of student engagement. I decided to use existing examples from the curriculum, sequencing them and displaying each step on a slide with animation. Students would then predict the next step. My coach expressed concern about the potential loss of momentum if no one could guess correctly. I countered with the idea of presenting two steps, like step one and step two, and asking students to compare them. We were both excited, and I eagerly began crafting the initial iterations of what I called the spark sequence .

This simple yet impactful pedagogical strategy is designed to enhance student learning and engagement while reducing teacher workload. It leverages our natural pattern recognition abilities to do the following:

• Focus student attention on key details through a step-by-step process
• Develop critical thinking by comparing similarities and differences across each step
• Boost confidence by enabling students to share their observations and build upon their understanding

New Levels of Engagement

The next day, a mix of excitement and nervousness coursed through me as I began the lesson. The usual pre-lesson grumbling commenced, but as we reached the first example, a shift was palpable. I wasn’t burdened with the explanation, and the students were once again engaged by the challenge. With two steps presented, they could freely analyze and compare. I then employed the “same-different” strategy, where students compare two things and identify similarities and differences.

While it took some students a moment to grasp the concept, the classroom chatter had transformed. Students were actively discussing their observations, their faces lighting up with understanding as the lesson progressed. A chorus of “That was fun!” confirmed their enjoyment, and they walked away from the example knowing how to solve it.

I then revisited the complete example, but instead of lecturing, I had students take turns explaining each step, collaboratively constructing a narrative.

Steps in the spark sequence

• Briefly display each step with minimal distractions.
• Think-pair-share. After each step, ask students to silently identify what’s the same and different (<10 seconds). Then, have them share their observations with a partner (15 seconds each).
• Repeat steps two and three.
• Once the sequence is complete, reveal the final outcome or justification. Allow students time to recall (10–30 seconds), then have them discuss with their partners (<1 minute).
• Wrap up: The whole class shares out. The teacher clears up any remaining misconceptions and summarizes the day’s learning.

In the end, I learned more from the students’ explanations than I had from the countless hours spent preparing the night before. In essence, I had discovered a way to engage my students, reduce my prep time, and learn alongside them. They became active participants in their education, taking the driver’s seat in their learning journey. By stepping aside and letting them take ownership, I fostered engagement and a shared learning experience for all of us.

Looking back, these moments marked a turning point. They transformed my doubts about my career choice into a deep sense of purpose. My students continue to love this strategy and the framework for discussion it provides. We’ve even incorporated it into student work, as they strive to create their own sequences or explore different applications of the strategy. It’s a place where we’ve all thrived—an oasis of learning and mutual respect, and a space where this old student has learned from his younger ones.
