Springboard 5: Catch-up programme for children in Year 5
The materials provide considerable support for each weekly unit of work. You
will, however, need to take into account the responses of your children and
adjust your teaching according to the progress they make. Individual children
are, of course, not necessarily at the same level of attainment in all their
mathematical work and will need more help and opportunities for consolidation in
some areas than in others. The materials will not do all your preparation for
you, but should give you a firm structure for your teaching.
The video sequences
The video sequences show ways in which you might approach Springboard 5
lessons. They show how the material to be taught should be broken down into
small steps and demonstrate appropriate lines of questioning. The lessons are
based on the same teaching objectives as the lead lessons and the content is
very similar. They have been slightly amended, where necessary, to meet the
specific needs of the children being filmed.
The National Numeracy Strategy is indebted to colleagues and children who
made arrangements for, and took part in, the filming from the Hamilton Oxford
schools Partnership, Birmingham LEA and Highfield Junior and Infant
School.
