How to Make Maths Practice A Powerful Experience. Every Day
Â
PRESENTED BY Michaela Epstein
There's one thing that's a given in the maths classroom, for all learners: Practice.
We know that practice is the pathway to mastery, that it’s needed for retention, and that it's critical for learning in math.
Yet, too often practice is none of these. Instead it can be: passive, mindless and meaningless.
Â
In this session, we'll focus on exactly what you can do to change this - for all learners.
Michaela will share repeatable strategies you can use to easily adapt your existing resources and make practice far more effective in the maths classroom.
