 Maths is such a fun curriculum area to teach! I love everything about Maths - the way students share their learning and thinking, the manipulatives that can be used to explore their findings and the variety of programmes or Maths ideas that are out there to be used in your Maths programme. To start with, checking in with your fellow teachers at school on the programmes or notions they use in school. This could be things like Numicon, PR1ME or others in guided Maths teaching time. You might like to run your programme in a tumble based with activities to complete to support guided teaching time with you.
So I created a Maths acronym and concept based on each of those called PRISM. I use it in a tumble based programme to begin after unpacking each aspect slowly with practice opportunities. Each anchor chart is on the wall to refer back to if students are unsure or need ideas for each part. After practice and time, I then include 'you pick' where I give students the choice of what they want to do from the choices. I include other play aspects like lego table and play area so students can also do that if you they want to. I loved building student agency and giving my students the option to choose what they would like to do.  The above picture explains how I teach Maths in my classroom. This is something I have practiced and fine tuned and I find works for ME in guided Maths teaching. This covers what we do when students come to the teacher table when teaching a strategy. I love this type of teaching as it gives me opportunities to differentiate based on students needs and target the next learning steps. Maths is lots of fun and I love seeing the growth of students in the learning and activities. There are lots of different ways to teach and cover Maths so do what works for you and your students. Check out some of the many Maths resources I have on my website including my PRISM Maths concept covering everything you need to implement this concept in your classroom too. Prism Maths Concept

I love all the new updates that Seesaw is making to continue to meet the needs of our learners and our wants as teachers. The multiple recording tool now makes it easy to create interactive and multi-purpose activities for all year levels! This is a great way to gain a snapshot of what the students are thinking and see exactly what they are doing in their learning.  These listen and write maths activities allow students to first listen to the recording of me saying a number; then write it down in the space next to it. There are four pre-made ones that cover numbers to 10, 20, 100 and 1000. Students can listen as many times as they need to, to figure out the number.
These can be used for formative assessment, number hot spots, summative assessment or even fun maths activities! Find the links to all four Seesaw activities for yourself on this link here!

Learning the calendar is an important part of our maths programme - with the focus on days of the week, months, years, weather, seasons and days in school. Each day you have at school we add to our count, incorporating place value into this so students are learning concepts of moving ones to tens, and tens to hundreds. My kids love calendar maths and always remind me when we haven't done it during the day yet. Part of calendar maths that I run is 100s day. A class celebration that we have to celebrate being at school for 100 days and being 100 days smarter. You never reach 200 days so it is a great celebration to be able to move your tens bundles to the hundreds in place value. It is always so much fun and I always go way extra to make sure my kids have a great celebration! Check out some of the photos below of what I do with my kiddies and have set up for 100s day!
Activities on the day We complete a variety of activities on the day that are around the number 100. Counting to 100, 100 dances, 100 second challenges, creating things with blocks, lego, cups etc using 100 items only, 100 day writing prompts, 100 day reflection activities and more! So many easy ideas to complete - just google 100s day! Need some calendar maths resources? Search 'calendar' maths on my website or find an interactive freebie resource below.
