Numeracy at Dodleston CE Primary School
Numeracy in the new curriculum 2014
Aims
The national curriculum for mathematics aims to ensure that all pupils:
- Become fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics, including through varied and frequent practice with increasingly complex problems over time, so that pupils develop conceptual understanding and the ability to recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately.
- Reason mathematically by following a line of enquiry, conjecturing relationships and generalisations, and developing an argument, justification or proof using mathematical language.
- Can solve problems by applying their mathematics to a variety of routine and non-routine problems with increasing sophistication, including breaking down problems into a series of simpler steps and persevering in seeking solutions.
Numeracy Long Term Plans for Dodleston CE Primary
At Dodleston CE Primary we have a mastery approach to Mathematical learning and follow the White Rose Maths Scheme of planning. Every year group is taught individually and are taught their corresponding year group objectives. The children gain a secure understanding and are further extended and challenged by 'mastering' an objecive and being able to apply it within different contexts and in real-life situations.
