MyMaths for Key Stage 3: Teacher Companion 1A

MyMaths for Key Stage 3 is a new course that works with MyMaths to deliver the new KS3 curriculum, replacing outdated Framework materials. With a truly differentiated structure so all abilities can access the new curriculum, it is underpinned by a 'learn it once and learn it well' philosophy that enables coherent teaching and learning. All resources are written by teachers for teachers, so you can be confident it will be practical in the classroom. The emphasis on visible progression and visual engagement, plus direct links to MyMaths, will bring maths alive. This teacher companion is for teachers of lower ability students starting KS3. It contains customisable lesson plans, practical guidance based on classroom needs, and medium- and long-term plans to offer a viable replacement for the Framework. For the more experienced teacher, the Lesson-at-a-Glance feature provides quick ideas on how to approach a lesson. Furthermore, the unique attainment profiling provides essential practical guidance on measuring your less able students' progression. A focus on transition from KS2, with key knowledge identified, ensures all your students can catch up; and a focus on mathematical literacy helps ensure that students communicate effectively using maths, which is essential for KS4. Direct links to MyMaths throughout allow you to integrate this powerful tool into your everyday classroom delivery.
