This one-day workshop will explore the SINGAPORE APPROACH TO TEACHING
MATHS AND HOW IT CAN MEET THE NEEDS OF CHILDREN WHO ARE STRUGGLING
WITH MATHS. The day will focus on the five core elements of the
SINGAPORE APPROACH. These five core elements are metacognition,
visualization, number sense, generalisation and communication. Each
will be explored together with practical strategies such as bar
modelling, the use of ten frames, Cuisenaire rods and other
appropriate manipulatives. The workshop will be very hands on with
plenty of practical ideas and activities and will be suitable for
anyone who works with children experiencing difficulties in MATHS. It
will address both primary and secondary phases. Judy HORNIGOLD BSC,
