Mathematics and statistics teaching at primary school

18 Jan 2022

There is no shortage of advice about how to approach mathematics and statistics teaching in primary school and it is often difficult to know the ‘best’ way to structure mathematics and statistics programmes so that all students can access ideas and make sound progress.

In this webinar, Associate Professor Fiona Ell and Dr Lisa Darragh from Waipapa Taumata Rau | University of Auckland discuss principles that teachers can use to design maths lessons, and mathematics and statistics programmes more broadly. They explore what research suggests are ways to organise and design for learning that include all students and stimulate engagement and progress in mathematics and statistics.
