Four Structured Projects
Each of these 4 projects have been structured in a similar manner:
Starter Activity using Mental Maths - I have
called this Number Talks as the emphasis is on the discussion of
the methods employed
Teaching Activity - This delivers some of the key
teaching required to move the project forward
Task Activity - This is when Pupils work in groups tackling the
project.
Pupils are assigned group roles and the work culminates in some
form of group assessment whilst the teacher assesses using a red
amber green assessment -
