What got me thinking?
 Teaching Year 5 and Year 6 at the same
time
 Purposeful differentiation
 Extending the talented mathematicians
in a large group
 What purposeful targets look like
The process
 Find out what the children know
 Set short term targets based on
this information
 Record the progress towards these
targets...

 in a user friendly, quick and
straightforward way!
Before moving on to a new
unit, the children respond
to quiz questions to see
what they already know.
The table shows what they
can do and the areas they
need to work on. These
become their targets.
The targets become the
sequence of the learning
and as targets are
achieved, this is added
to the table in the form
of the date.
Its fine to say, I dont
know, as the children
are clear that this is
an opportunity to
learn.
Its a process that is
evolving and is refined
as I go along.
The quiz questions are in the
order of the planned
teaching sequence and I
always try to have questions
at the end that they will not
have encountered.
I now add empty boxes on
the end to add extra targets
for children who need the
challenge.
