Big Ideas is a 12-week Intervention Programme. Big Ideas - focuses on the key mathematical ideas from the second part of Phase 2 and early Phase 3. Big Ideas - is based on research on how to best support learners with identified gaps in their foundational maths knowledge! Big Ideas - covers Place Value, Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, Fractions, decimals and Percentages in one term! It is also suitable for students with learning difficulties We welcome Catherine Huxford from Maths Associates in Auckland to Christchurch on the 3rd September. The full - day PD will include: * Unpacking the Big Ideas Intervention Programme * Learning how to use the assessment tools within the programme with your learners - to identify specific 'gaps' in learning. * Identify the starting point - selecting from the 48 step-by-step explicit lessons provided for you in the five key areas: This course will be practical, contain some theory and a is your chance to learn how to successfully implement, explore and unpack this incredible self contained, highly successful intervention programme.

This course with Janette is hands on practical session on how to implement the Numicon Intervention Programme. This in depth 12 - 15 week Intervention runs for 20 - 25 minutes per day in small groups. It has a diagnostic tool to ascertain the start point. Learners use manipulatives to communicate mathematically, generalise and explore relationships through explicit teaching, filling gaps they have missed with number structure, operations and early rational numbers. Teachers and Teacher Assistants will learn about how early misunderstandings can have a profound flow on effect with conceptual understandings and procedural fluency. A sequenced and scripted learning programme moves these students beyond Phase 1 and into Phase 2. There are two-course options. Follow the dropdown menu to make your selection.
