Supporting TAs to use Manipulatives in Maths: KS2
These two CPD sessions for TAs being held on the same day, will
focus on how the effective use of models & images can help support
conceptual development in mathematics. The two sessions will be
tailored for KS1 and KS2 separately.
The KS2 session will focus mainly on place value, including
decimals, developing written methods for calculation & fractions,
although some time will be available for the exploration of
manipulatives to support shape and algebra. A variety of
manipulatives will be explored including Base 10, place value
counters, Cuisenaire rods to develop an understanding of fractions
& algebra tiles. Models and images will also include arrays to
develop understanding of multiplication & division and bar
modelling to support problem solving and reasoning. TA’s subject
knowledge will be developed alongside the use of models & images.
