Restrict time spent modelling tasks and integrate numeracy reasoning into everyday tasks.]]> 2017-04-13 04:10:28 UTC https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166195866 https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166195881 1. Warm up activity.
2. Providing opportunites for students to reflect on their learning (instead of purely sharing student work).
3. Team teaching with the other Year One for a lesson a week, in order to improve and differentiate our teaching.  ]]> 2017-04-13 04:10:54 UTC https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166195881 https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166195888
Reducing teacher talk time and giving students more time to do the thinking.

Team teaching with other year class for 1 maths lesson a week to assist differentiation.

Meaningful reflection - giving students the experience to reason.

- begin teaching a Maths lesson every week that is explicitely devoted to the skill of Mathematical reasoning and problem solving
- learn more about  resources I can access where I can find plentiful, differentiated, open-ended Maths questions, so my students have appropriate, engaging activities for this.
- Make a stronger effort to include sufficient sharing and reflection time in the final part of each Maths lesson, instead of the usual effort to get everyone finished before the bell. ]]> 2017-04-13 04:11:10 UTC https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166195893 john_heffernan0 https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166196012 to work on the problem solving within the class and so:

• will create regular learning opportunities focusing on interpreting questions or gleaning important information to help solve problem
• work through different problem solving strategies (as listed in Maths300)
• have students familiar with the strategies and selection of tasks that suit different approaches

1. During reflection time develop questioning from students to students about how they solved.
Have sentence starters for students to reflect;
e.g. I found a rule to support......
There was a pattern that I found and it..........
Formalise 2 stars and a wish.
Make exit tickets more formalised as part of formative assessment.

1. Improve feedback mechanisms: exit passes, 2 stars and a wish; stop light; I knew & now I know
2. Embed the WALT, TIB, WILF constructivist approach into every lesson. Currently do this as a lesson organisation focus but not every time it would be applicable to the content.
3. Create a computer cafe in new classroom so students can access the class Symbaloo and for me to update this with current maths sites relevant to Year 4 content.

I will work on building the vocabulary into every maths lesson in an explicit manner.]]> 2017-04-13 04:17:20 UTC https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166196152 https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166196181 I will work at improving my reflection time with students by using prompt cards and exit cards
I will empower my students to use a classroom technique of colour coded items to display their understanding

1.  Provide opportunities for students to share their thinking and reflect on efficient  strategies.  
2. Take a look at the resources for teaching Ted talks etc. to get more ideas to increase reasoning  opportunities in the classroom.
3.  More explicit teaching of strategies and associated language to help students to express themselves.]]> 2017-04-13 04:24:17 UTC https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166196489 https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166196642 1. Better questions for more effective reflecting on learning.
2. Read Rob Vingerhoets on reflection particularly and Elham Kazemi- Math talk moves.
3. Less teacher talk, more student thinking/ doing  time ]]> 2017-04-13 04:27:20 UTC https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166196642 https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166196689 I will work on reflection time in Prepand work to develop the students ability to clearly communicate using the appropriate vocabulary.

1. Less teacher talking , more children reasoning.
2. Having reflection time after each Maths session.
3. Sharing maths tasks and ideas with my collarborative team to better my maths teaching.]]> 2017-04-13 04:29:06 UTC https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166196727 https://padlet.com/hilary_purdie/z4qvjgww2qqi/wish/166196763 Talk less and reflect more.
