The New South Wales Department of Education Literacy and Numeracy Strategy 2017-2020 

# data[].attributes.body
Literacy is the ability to understand and evaluate meaning through reading, writing, listening and speaking, viewing and representing (NSW Literacy K-12 policy, 2007)

# data[].attributes.body
How?

Numeracy = maths on tour

Maths that stay with you for life = spacial awareness, logic etc.

If you're a secondary provider: "I can offer support and encouragement to students"

1. Numbers: whole numbers, decimals, fractions etc.

2. Measurements and units of measurement: weight, time, length etc.

3. Shape: 2D, 3D, regular etc.

4. Measurement of shape: origin from baseline, positive, negative etc.

5. Data Handling: data, stats, surveying etc.

6. Patterns: number patterns, sequences, symmetries etc.

7. Problem Solving: hypothesis, calculating, validating answers etc.

8. Making Connections: prior knowledge, contextual frames, vertical etc.

9. Representation: concrete, semi-concrete, symbolic etc.

# data[].attributes.body
Why?

Gives students: the capacity to think, reason and learn. Enhances ones' life chances and employ-ability prospects.

Improved employ-ability prospects = economic revival

"A student leaves us, but maths goes with them.."

"With respect to employment at age 30:
Men and women with poor numeracy were more than twice as likely to be unemployed as those with competent numeracy." (Bynner and Parsons, 2006)

Reasons why numeracy is important: practical, civic (understanding public issues), professional (required for employment), recreational (extended choices of activities, sports + games) and cultural.

No such thing as a pre-packaged curriculum - best thing to do is go to the definition.

We need to make numeracy and literacy evident in our teaching. E.g. learning walls that highlights literacy and numeracy.

What?

Numeracy was first mentioned in 1959 (Crowther) - "Numeracy is a mirror image of literacy"

Cockcroft, 1982 - "an at-home-ness with numbers"

Numeracy is generic. No one department in the school owns it. It is an all school approach.

"Numeracy is everyone's business. Numeracy and literacy have a permanent place in the spotlight"

First Responders at 2nd level = Maths Department and Learning Support.

Second Responders at 2nd level = PE and  Arts (not maths) Departments

Carrier Subjects at 2nd level = all of the other subjects

Basic Maths (for students coming in with no primary school maths)

Survival Maths (the maths students need to be employable)

Functional Maths

Primary Maths

In the 2000's there was a prioritisation  literacy and numeracy. It came into the spotlight due to the economic collapse.

After the PISA results came out Project Maths was launched.

Project Maths allows students the capacity to: think, reason, communicate and engage in creative exploration.

Another macro change in our system = Junior Cycle Reform (JCR)

Being numerate is part of a short course - key learning priority.

Numeracy in DEIS Schools (2015) - "the scope for development is considerable (= too much time spent on planning and not implementing.
