Maths Professional Development
Over the last two day’s all our staff at St Mary’s have been working with Leonie Anstey from Elevated Learning who is our maths consultant employed by Catholic Education in our Canberra /Goulburn Archdiocese.
Leonie presented a whole day Maths workshop online on Thursday and Friday and we were fortunate to be able to use our students for demonstration classes on both days. Some of the students were a bit awestruck with being on camera but they worked through really well.





Today all the 5/6 students worked with Mrs Haworth and Mrs Cuthbertson to put into play what these teachers learnt yesterday. They delivered inquiry based, differentiated Maths on Chance and Data using manipulatives, great games , higher order thinking and integrating other stands of maths.
The teachers are very grateful for the opportunity to continue to work Leonie to build teacher capacity in teaching Maths and improve student outcomes.
