MY QLC FOCUS
IN MATHEMATICS…
Provide challenging independent learning
activities (especially to the high-end learners)
All learners will be catered for and
challenged in their learning
Why did I choose this topic?
Was a goal from my appraisal last year
I’m confident knowing the ‘next step’ for students on
the lower end of the curriculum
I want students to be more independent but be
working on tasks the challenge and push them (not
just busy, worksheet type tasks).
What I Hope to See?
Students engaged in independent tasks
Students taking on challenges in their learning
What Have I Done?
Changed my maths programme.
Using a different taskboard
Students have choice on what activities they do
Students are accountable for their learning by ‘ticking
off’ their completed activity.
Student Voice
I interviewed three students in the class (each from a
different math group).
I wanted to know what they thought of the new
programme.
I asked them questions that got them to reflect on the
old programme and the new programme and the
effect it had on them.
What Did I Learn From the
Interviews?They all loved having the choice of what activities they got to do.
What they don’t like about the current programme is the ‘ticking off’ part (too crowded). *Possible solution – more whiteboard markers or certain groups going at a time.
Add different activities to the taskboard
Take workshops (similar to writing) anyone can join in.
Reflective Questions
Are the students positive about the new programme just because it is different?
All students enjoyed the new activities in the current programme but, are these activities targeted to what they are learning about?
Would it be more beneficial to use the taskboard so the activities are ticked off weekly instead of daily?
If the programme becomes something that needs to be completed weekly, would ‘MUST-DO’s’ and ‘CAN-DO’s’ be effective?
