Course Overview:
1stClass@Number 2 trains a teaching assistant and a link teacher to successfully implement an evidence-based maths intervention programme to children in lower Key Stage 2.
The intervention programme comes ready-made with detailed lesson plans and extensive resources.
This course will train a teaching assistant to deliver 30 half-hour sessions to a group of up to four Y3 or 4 children who need support to achieve the Y2 expectations.
The lessons focus on number and calculation, developing children’s mathematical understanding, communication and reasoning skills.
A Post Office theme runs throughout, engaging children in real life contexts that are both stimulating and fun.
Each topic starts with a simple assessment that helps the teaching assistant to tailor sessions to the children’s needs.
