Mathematics INSET
Thank you to all the staff at Blandford St Mary for making the February INSET on mathematics a great success. Teachers and teaching assistants used Haylock and Cockburn's connective model to identify effective teaching of mathematices (see below). Staff were introduced to new intervention strategies to be used in the classroom (remember there are resources on the intervention documents page) and we also looked at mathematics games (links are on the games page).
