Use different computer software e.g. WORK SHEET FACTORY Using TABLES TESTING /chants/singing the tables Use MAB and unifix activities to improve his skills with RENAMING, TRADING & BRIDGING in a variety of ways Vary the use of tables with reading TIME = X5 Use one number in each square of the Maths books to help improve PLACE VALUE knowledge Work with MATHLETICS 3-4 times a week at school and home – with teacher MONITORING his results What resources are needed? MAB Mathletics Worksheet Factory software Team Board Quickly rotating activities More hands-on activities in learning centres What evidence (do, say, make, write) would show the goals are met? Re-testing – Feb /June/ Nov Observation in class, his bookwork and on computer Monitor his Mathletics results Work the class in rotational group activities Use METACOGNITION 3 -4 times a week
