Independent Learning - KS1 Maths
In this Teachers TV programme, two education experts Malcolm Reed and Alison Fletcher analyse a primary mathematics lesson for a mixed ability class, looking at the teacher's techniques for encouraging independent learning.
Teacher Pritti Poole encourages the use of mathematical vocabulary as she introduces her lesson on 2D and 3D shapes. For the main activity she splits the class into five groups based on ability who then work independently on their task so the teacher is able to support individual children. She also guides children to help each other by visiting other tables to answer their questions.
Malcolm and Alison evaluate her methods of teaching, focussing on Pritti's techniques for helping the children to become independent learners.
