Maths
Being able to count, calculate and solve problems is a vital skill. At Gorse Covert Primary, we endeavour to develop these important skills, whilst also giving children a love of maths, confidence in their ability and the ability to reason, think logically and work systematically.
Power Maths
At Gorse Covert Primary we use White Rose and Power Maths, which are UK curriculum mastery programmes, designed to spark curiosity and excitement.
Each lesson has distinct part to develop confidence and skills.
Discover-generating curiosity to solve a problem.
Share-sharing solutions to problems.
Think Together-the teacher demonstrates new learning and the children practise the learning.
Practice-children work independently to practise their new skills.
Reflect-where the children evaluate their understanding of the key concept and small step they have been trying to master in the lesson.
