This interactive module looks in depth at the priority area of foundation Maths. We look at what it is, why it is important and ways to help embed maths language and practice throughout the day. We look at at how play supports and promotes maths as well as the importance of deliberate acts of teaching.
This course consists of four modules, each consisting of videos and many ideas for how to support your learners develop their foundation maths. The modules are:
- Module 1: Introduction to Early Years Maths
- Module 2: Algebra – Patterns
- Module 3: Shape & Space
- Module 4: Subitising & Counting
- Module 5: Measurement
This interactive course looks in depth at the priority area of Social and Emotional readiness. We look at what it is, why it is important and what the impact is on learning? We help you recognise these attributes in your learners and how to track and monitor their progress. We also look in depth at how play supports and promotes social and emotional development.
This module consists of 3 videos, a tracking template, and many ideas for how to support your learners development their movement skills.
This interactive module looks in depth at the priority area of Executive Function. We look at what it is, why it is important, and what the impact is on learning. We help you recognise these attributes in your learners and how to track and monitor their progress.
This module consists of 3 videos and many ideas for how to support your learners develop their executive function.
This interactive course looks in depth at the priority area of Oral Language and Literacy. We look at what it is, why it is important to be automatic, and what the impact is on learning? We help you recognise these attributes in your learners and how to track and monitor their progress. The
This course consists of 5 modules which focus on introducing Oral Language and Literacy, what it entails and how you can recognise your learner’s strengths and areas for development. Oral language, Vocabulary development and Listening are also covered in depth with many great resources to support the development in these areas.
This interactive module looks in depth at the priority area of Physicality / Movement. We look at what it is, why it is important to be automatic, what the impact is on learning? We help you recognise these attributes in your learners and how to track and monitor their progress. The attributes focused on consist of gross and fine motor, coordination, balance, core strength, rhythmical movement and directional change.
This module consists of 3 videos, a tracking template, and hundreds of ideas for how to support your learners development their movement skills.
This module unpacks what the foundation skills of movement are and why it is important to be automatic. We share some resources and activities to help you support the development of fine and gross motor, core strength and coordination.
This is ideal for NZ ECE and Year 1-2 teachers.
Using your R4L data to inform teaching and learning
Welcome to this online learning module. If you haven’t yet completed modules 1 and 2, we suggest you close out of this module and return to the first two. These two modules will give you a clear understanding about what the Foundation skills are and how to assess them.
This module will help you to unpack your learner’s data and to start thinking about how you might address these needs. Whilst you might already have your own learners data, we suggest you use our example data first and then after the module is completed, go through the same process with your own learners.
There are many opportunities to pause the video to reflect and brainstorm. As always, we suggest you do make the time to do this as you will get so much more out of this session.
If you have any questions, we are only an email away. [email protected]
We have devised an assessment which becomes a formative tracking and monitoring tool, supporting and underpinning the “foundation elements” needed for a learner to be curriculum ready As higher level cognitive tasks such as reading, writing and Maths are dependent upon the successful execution of fundamental skills and related tasks.
Please note – if you have already purchased our ‘Assessment Tool’, you will have received a voucher code with your download. Use this code to receive $30 off the price of the course.
In this module we introduce you to the entire framework and delve deeper into each of the core elements:
- Key Competencies,
- Speaking
- Hearing
- Movement
- Seeing
- Print
We unpack the importance of each element and look at their contribution towards curriculum readiness.
