P-4 Numeracy – Lesson 3 today
Our P-4 classes were hard at work on a range of numeracy based activities during lesson 3 today. Students were very keen to display their knowledge of each task when I was in their rooms, with all students being excited to share their understandings with me.
Maths Pathways Program
Students from years 6 – 10 have been trialing the Maths Pathways program this semester with the college looking to implement the program from years 6 – 10 in 2016. Staff involved have been most impressed with the many benefits of this program and will be holding a parent information evening next week. It would be great if as many parents of 2016 year 6 – 10 students as possible, could attend.
