Themes

The 7 themes are made up of a number of topics.

Click the theme to explore the topics and teaching and learning resources.

Resources within each topic

There are 3 types of learning resource specific to each layer (deliberately small "bite") of learning on a topic

• teach-learn - example questions for the teacher to use to teach 

• practise-learn -  a worksheet of practice questions (with fold over / cut off /separate answers) for the learner to practise what they have just learned

• timely practice - is only available via the timely practice app. The app sophisticatedly and responsively schedules practice questions to increase the recall-ability of learning by the learner.

There are 2 types of planning resources putting each topic in context for the teacher

• topic sample: which shows a typical question for each layer within the topic (found below the heading on each topic page)

• theme overview: which gives a brief description of every layer within every topic within each theme (found by clicking the topic theme above)

Not all topics are traditionally named e.g.

• rounding is split between correctTOnearest (within integer) and correctDP and estimateSIGfig (both within FDPR)

• substitute is called valueAlgebra - named because questions asks learners to “find/write down the value of” a variable - the word substitute isn’t mentioned

• writeAlgebra is writing expressions and formulae

Here is 1 place to keep in touch - a place to make suggestions or requests about topics or timely practice functionality.
