Description

This full-day workshop, led by mathematics consultant Sheila Griffin, explores common misconceptions in place value and provides hands-on experience with Concrete–Representational–Abstract (CRA) tasks. With a strong focus on effective place value activities and making the mathematical proficiencies visible in the classroom, participants will engage with practical strategies to deepen student understanding. Educators will examine how to differentiate tasks to meet diverse learning needs and discuss approaches to assessing student thinking at each stage of the CRA sequence. By the end of the session, teachers will gain greater confidence in designing and delivering impactful place value learning experiences.

Outcomes

  • Increased confidence to plan and deliver lessons aligned to the WA Mathematics Curriculum.

  • Deeper knowledge and understanding of place value, including misconceptions.

  • Teachers will have a selection of engaging hands-on activities and resources that support differentiated learning and assessment.
