Maths Strategies with Legs
A Tierney Kennedy course, presented by Paula McMahon.
In maths, some strategies can take us a long way.
They are flexible and adaptable, can be used for multiple concepts and help students to retain ideas.
This single day course will introduce you to 9 strategies that can be used to teach the vast majority of concepts in maths up to Year 10 level without memorising formulas.
