  1. Welcome to the Year 7 information evening on English and Mathematics. Louise Headland Leader on Key Stage 3 Teaching and Learning Jasmine Etheridge Teacher in charge of Year 7 mathematics Chris Peirce Head of English

  2. Some primary schools tell parents not to confuse their children with different methods. = Year 7 students unable to do their Maths and parents not wanting to confuse them

  3. You can help. Method doesn’t matter. But you must write down what you do.

  4. On your tables are some whiteboards, pens and cloths. Work out the answer to: 247 x 36 (no calculators allowed.) Answer: 8892

  5. Different methods used: Long multiplication 247 x 36 1482 7410 8892

  6. Different methods used: Grid Method x 200 40 7 30 6000 1200 210 6 1200 240 42 6000 + 1200 + 210 + 1200 + 240 + 42 = 8892

  7. Different methods used: Chinese Method Add up down the diagonals for each digit = 8892 2 1 0 1 6 2 4 1 2 2 4 2

  8. Maths Treasure Hunt Choose any question to start with and work your way through the treasure hunt. Keep track of the order of your answers on the answer sheet

  14. What is going to happen with assessment?

  15. Assessment Students will be regularly assessed. Current working at grades will be updated on Go4Schools. We will be using levels P1 to P8 for students who are working towards a GCSE level. P levels mean pre-GCSE levels. For students already working at GCSE standard, we will use the GCSE levels 1 to 9.

  16. GCSE Grading

  17. We will be monitoring students’ progress throughout Years 7 to 11 to enable them to fulfil their potential.

  18. So how can we help you to support students in mathematics?

  19. Google Classroom • Homework • Teacher email addresses • Information from this evening

  20. Maths Support Websites Hegarty Maths Times Table Rock Stars. Thank for your support with returning letters.

  21. Don’t practise until you get something right, practise until you can’t get it wrong.

  26. 1.) KS3 Curriculum Model “It’s not that I’m so smart. It’s that I stay with questions longer.” Albert Einstein 2.) Reading outside the classroom 3.) Reading inside the classroom

  27. 1.) KS3 curriculum: reading and writing via culturally empowering topics Between 95% and 98% word comprehension needed for full meaning comprehension.

  28. Our English Summative Assessment Model: KS3 • Two mark schemes for use in assessing KS3: Reading and Writing • A simpler and more focused handling of Assessment Objectives • Fluidity between Preparation levels and GCSE criteria • 80% of assessment grades will be through reading/writing extended tasks • 20% of assessment through multiple-choice questions to test literacy and contextual/cultural knowledge • Overall assessment levels through a numerical combination of these two areas (out of 48) This means our assessments explicitly incorporate the testing of knowledge and recall

  29. This means our assessments explicitly incorporate the testing of knowledge and recall

  30. 2.) Reading outside the classroom

  31. 3.) Reading inside the classroom (and maybe homework)

  32. Active Reading Process

  33. Modelled annotation

  34. Task: Supporting students with challenging texts
