Maths
Maths is taught everyday and largely follows a structure of a short mental/arithmetic starter followed by the core lesson. Lessons are grouped into units by subject.
The units and order of lessons follow the medium-term plans / schemes of learning as set out in White Rose Maths. Lessons are based on small steps to ensure full and deep understanding.
Lessons follow the mastery structure of starting with varied fluency before moving onto to reasoning and problem-solving. When children are secure in the fluency skills studied in the lesson, they then move onto reasoning and problem-solving tasks which become progressively more challenging.
Resources (such as number lines, place value counters, dienes) are available to all pupils in any lesson where relevant and form part of the teaching. During independent work, relevant resources continue to be made available to children to choose from to support their own learning.
When children have completed the fluency part of a lesson, they work in a group of 3 to mark what they have done. This gives them the opportunity to discuss their answers and confirm their thinking, as well as improving their ability to prove their thinking.
