We engage evidenced informed science of learning and teaching strategies in Mathematics.
Our Numeracy program covers the requirements of the Victorian Curriculum through the explicit teaching of skills through the evidenced informed Learning Framework in Number, (LFIN). This means that the children are taught to their individual point of need. Numeracy lessons ensure students are instructed to extend existing knowledge and skills through lessons that focus on the next stage of the LFIN learning progression. Numeracy skills are also reinforced through daily revision and application of these skills through authentic learning experiences. Mathematics learning and teaching at St. Margaret Mary’s ensures individual students learning needs are met through the nuanced and agile combination of explicit teaching and applied learning tasks.
St. Margaret Mary’s Mathematics Learning and Teaching is expertly lead by Anne Ablinger who brings to this role extensive mathematics teaching and leadership experience. Anne utilises her specialised knowledge of Learning Framework In Number, change leadership and curriculum design that is responsive to student data and aligned with evidenced informed practice. Anne, amongst her many skills, is proficient in Multi-sensory learning. Anne works “shoulder to shoulder,’ in classrooms, at planning meetings and when facilitating professional learning with our Classroom and Learning Enhancement Intervention teachers.
