Research proves that an inclusive environment where pupils feel valued and have a belonging mindset promotes a better physical and mental health (Walton and Cohen, 2011), improves pupils motivation, raises grade, and reduces racial, gender, and social gaps. Furthermore, promoting inclusive disciplines amongst negatively stereotyped pupils can reduce attainment gaps (Rattan et al, 2015).      ]]> 2020-05-04 09:57:10 UTC https://padlet.com/squiggles2909/wgwq01miaj65f87y/wish/548762447 squiggles2909 https://padlet.com/squiggles2909/wgwq01miaj65f87y/wish/548765190 Collaborative learning

Boyd and Ash (2018) found in their study that pupils in a Year 3 class being taught the mastery approach (with a focus on mathematical vocabulary and stem sentences) could reason drastically better than pupils in Year 6 who were not being taught through the mastery approach and had limited emphasis on vocabulary .   ]]> 2020-05-04 09:59:01 UTC https://padlet.com/squiggles2909/wgwq01miaj65f87y/wish/548767374 squiggles2909 https://padlet.com/squiggles2909/wgwq01miaj65f87y/wish/548768336 Using well planned lessons

Brown (2009) states that the first and last ten minutes are as critical as the main body of the lesson.  The plenary can clarify what has been learnt; consider how it fits with previous knowledge, be a time for reflection and a consideration of room for improvement.    ]]> 2020-05-04 09:59:24 UTC https://padlet.com/squiggles2909/wgwq01miaj65f87y/wish/548768336 squiggles2909 https://padlet.com/squiggles2909/wgwq01miaj65f87y/wish/548769601 Concrete Pictorial Abstract approach 

The teaching approach
was originally based on the idea of Jerome Bruner in 1960. CPA approach consists of three stages
where students learn through physical manipulation of concrete objects, followed by learning
through a pictorial representation of a concrete manipulation, and ends with solving problems using
abstract notation (Witzell, 2005).]]> 2020-05-04 09:59:54 UTC https://padlet.com/squiggles2909/wgwq01miaj65f87y/wish/548769601 squiggles2909 https://padlet.com/squiggles2909/wgwq01miaj65f87y/wish/548771351 Deeper understanding of mathematics

"Instant Feedback is an important and necessary part of any teacher’s career path.

It is essential that teachers are confident in all aspects of subject knowledge in a forever advancing curriculum.

Present Concerns - 

Newall (2019), reports that some teachers avoid further discussion which makes learning of mathematics more robust and gives the skills to answer more rigorous challenges.  

The NCETM (2019) reported that consistently strong subject knowledge had only been embedded in some teachers in visited schools, within their study on the implementation of mathematics mastery. ]]> 2020-05-04 10:02:57 UTC https://padlet.com/squiggles2909/wgwq01miaj65f87y/wish/548777244 squiggles2909 https://padlet.com/squiggles2909/wgwq01miaj65f87y/wish/548778449 White Rose Math
 “To teach for mastery is to teach with the highest expectations for every learner, so that their understanding is deepened, with the aim that they will be able to solve non-standard problems in unfamiliar concepts”(Drury, 2019).

Dweck (2014) supports the importance of positive feedback on efforts over outcomes as it can create a growth mind set culture throughout the classroom.  She advocates the use of a ‘not yet grade’, believing that using the word ‘yet’ or ‘not yet’ give children confidence and create persistence.
