• • uses a variety of teaching strategies and activity types

  • places a strong emphasis on problem solving and regularly challenges students to engage with unfamiliar problems

  • uses hands on materials and visuals to support student understanding

  • promotes learning through collaboration and discussion with peers

  • encourages students to be active learners and develop understandings and make connections for themselves

  • provides intervention and extension to students who have been identified as needing additional support

  • encourages and assists parents to support their child’s Mathematics learning at home.
