Parents and carers of our Primary 5b, P4b and P4\/5\u00a0 learners joined us on Tuesday 20th October for our third Family Learning session this year, exploring how we teach Mathematics at Cathedral Primary School.<\/p>\n
The session began with an insightful presentation from Mrs Duffy, who shared how we are developing confident and resilient mathematicians through real-life applications, problem-solving and the Concrete\u2013Pictorial\u2013Abstract (CPA) approach. Families learned how our Active 8 approach provides a balanced mix of teacher-led, independent and collaborative learning, alongside differentiated numeracy and mathematics experiences.<\/p>\n
Following the presentation, parents and carers had the opportunity to visit classrooms and work alongside their children, seeing first-hand how practical experiences, mathematical reasoning, discussion and problem-solving are woven into everyday learning. It was wonderful to see our families engaging so positively with their children\u2019s mathematical learning and gaining a deeper understanding of the skills and approaches we use to build confidence, resilience and lifelong mathematical learning.<\/p>\n
A huge thank you to all our parents and carers for joining us and getting involved. Family Learning at Cathedral is all about working together to help our learners thrive.<\/p>\n
Our next Family Learning takes place Tuesday 3rd November for P5a, P4a and P3a. Some comments from our evaluation sheets;<\/p>\n
