Pupils need to be able to work efficiently and confidently when calculating. Using standard algorithms isn’t always the most efficient way to calculate an answer. Rather, pupils use to need number sense to decide what is the best way to carry out a particular calculation and then use estimates to check whether their answer is reasonable. These cards can be attached around the playground or the hall/classroom if it is raining. Pupils can start at different points on the trail since the cards form

Teaching style

Lessons have to be engaging and fun within a classroom environment which celebrates mistakes (because then I can see what they and others are thinking!) and encourages pupils to make conjectures and pursue these. It is also vitally important that teachers learn something from every lesson about pupils' learning, misconceptions or difficulties so that we can reflect and make pupils' experiences richer and increase both their understanding and enjoyment of mathematics.
