Daily Review
As part of the Catholic Education Catalyst Project, we have several teachers participating in professional learning aimed at developing High Impact Teaching Practices. As part of this learning, several classes are trailing Daily Review in Mathematics. This process focuses on 20 minutes of reviewing core concepts in maths from across all areas of the curriculum to consolidate key understandings. Teachers have been doing this for about a term and teachers and students are really engaging in this process and see the benefits that it has for student learning. Here is what students and teachers in our community feel:
Miss Battye- Students have been able to recall essential number facts quickly and apply them to other tasks in their learning
KB students- we like counting and practising writing our numbers each day
Joel (5EM)- it is a fun and engaging way to learn maths and practice my skills
Emi (5MM)- I like it because Mr Matchett always challenges us in what we know and what we need to improve on
Mrs Brown- the repetition and recall of number concepts daily has allowed students to improve their maths skills and work confidently when solving problems.
1BH- we enjoy counting backwards and forwards, showing Mrs Brown our learning and learning about new areas of maths
Mrs Stonham- It is great that students get to practise concepts daily and it is transferring into other activities and assessments
Aiden (4SG)- we learn new things and it is fun to practise my maths skills
Charlie (4SG)- It is good because we revise all the things we have learnt in class so we do not forget it
