Event Description
Many pupils lack resilience in mathematics. Teaching assistants can make a real difference to improve this.
This two-hour practical session will support TAs to develop pupils’ resilience in mathematics.
Delegates will leave with a range of practical strategies that they can use to:
• support problem-solving
• teach pupils to sustain their focus when asked to think for themselves
• improve pupil’s confidence and understanding of fractions.
The local cluster training is repeated in morning and afternoon sessions so as many TAs as possible can benefit.
