NAR Facilitator Support Model – Team Norms• Be prepared for meetings and respect punctuality• Be open to new learning• Respect others opinions, interact with integrity• Stay on topic, maintain professional conversation • Allow one person to speak at a time and listen actively • Enable everyone to have a voice • Discuss and respect diversity and differing views in a professional
manner and don’t take it personally• Accept that change, although sometimes difficult, is necessary for
improvement• Be considerate in your use of phones/technology• Be clear and clarify acronyms and unfamiliar terms. Ask if you
don’t understand. • Commit to follow through on agreed action• Respect the space and clean up your area before leaving

Mathematics and Comprehension In order to understand what the question is asking
students to do, reading and comprehension skills need to be developed.
• Reading requires skills in code-breaking; i.e., knowing the words and how the words, symbols and pictures are used in the test genre.
• Comprehension--i.e., making meaning of the literal, visual and symbolic text forms presented--requires students to draw on their skills as a text user, a text participant and a text analyst (Luke & Freebody, 1997).

Mathematics and Comprehension There are many different codes in mathematics that children need to
crack if they are to have success with the NAPLAN test genre. These include:
• English language words and phrases (e.g. wheels in the picture)• words and phrases particular to mathematics (e.g., number
sentence, total)• words and phrases from the English language that have a
particular meaning in the mathematics context but that may have a different meaning in other learning areas (e.g., complete)
• symbolic representations which for many learners are a language other than English - these include "3" representing "three," "x" representing "times," "multiply" and "lots of," "=" representing "is equal to.“
• images, including pictures/drawings, graphs, tables, diagrams, maps and grids.

ComprehensionThere are many different codes in mathematics that children need to
crack if they are to have success with the NAPLAN test genre. These include:
• drawings and images (such as the picture of the tricycles) to help them visualise and infer what the question might be asking
• words like "complete" and "total number of" to infer what the question is asking; and they also
• translate from the drawing to the sentence and then to the symbolic representation to understand they need to "fill in the empty boxes."

ComprehensionThese comprehension strategies need to be explicitly
taught and deliberately practiced. Strategies include:
• experiences with the test genre• relating the text types (drawings, grids, word
sentences) to children's experiences• asking children to retell the situation that is being
represented and describe or explain to others what they are inferring and thinking about a situation.

Effective Vocabulary Instruction• does not rely on definitions• relies on linguistic and non-linguistic
representations• uses multiple exposures • involves understanding word parts to
enhance meaning• involves different types of instruction for
different words (process vs content)• requires student talk and play with words• involves teaching the relevant words

Understanding why is
important to me. I need to visualise and
connect.
I like knowing the process and practising
problems to get better.
I need to know how it is
relevant to my life. I like to be able to discuss different ways of solving the
problem.
The theory of mathematics
is important to me. I like to know what
experts know.

• Rephrasing - “Who can share what ________ just said, but using your own words?”
• Reasoning - “Do you agree or disagree with ________? Why?”
• Elaborating - “Can you give an example?”• Waiting - “This question is important. Let’s
take some time to think about it.”

Modelled:
Using think alouds, talk to students about the concept of “schema”. When I think about “million” here are some connections I have made:• with my life• with maths that I know about• with something I saw on TV,
newspaper etc.

Shared:
Use a “schema roller” or brainstorm to elicit current understandings. Ask students to add their ideas.Record on anchor chart.

Imagine that you work on a farm. The owner has 24 sheep tells you that you must put all of the sheep in pens. You can fence the pens in different ways but you must put the same number of sheep in each pen. What is one way you might do this? How many different ways can you find?

Students need to be able to make connections between mathematics and their own lives.
Making connections across mathematical topics is important for developing conceptual understanding. For example, the topics of fractions, decimals, percentages, and proportions san usefully be linked through exploration of differing representations (e.g., ½ = 50%) or through problems involving everyday contexts (e.g., determining fuel costs for a car trip).
Teachers can also help students to make connections to real experiences. When students find they can use mathematics as a tool for solving significant problems in their everyday lives, they begin to view the subject as relevant and interesting.

QuestioningCommon question in mathematics are...• Why do I have to do this?• What do I have to do?• How many do I have to do?• Did I get it right?
Common question in mathematics should be..• How can I connect this?• What is important here?• How can I solve this?• What other ways are there?

Death, Taxes and Mathematics
There are two things in life we can be certain of.....
At least 50% of year 5’s hate story problems. They come to pre-school with some resourceful ways of solving problems e.g. dividing things equally. Early years of schooling – must do maths in a particular way, there is one right answer, there is one way of doing it.

Newman's prompts• The Australian educator Anne Newman (1977)
suggested five significant prompts to help determine where errors may occur in students attempts to solve written problems. She asked students the following questions as they attempted problems.
1. Please read the question to me. If you don't know a word, leave it out.
2. Tell me what the question is asking you to do.3. Tell me how you are going to find the answer.4. Show me what to do to get the answer. "Talk aloud" as
you do it, so that I can understand how you are thinking.5. Now, write down your answer to the question.

Read and understand the problem (using Newman's prompts)
• Teacher reads the word problem to students.
• Teachers uses questions to determine the level of understanding of the problem e.g. – How many pizzas are there? – Are the pizzas the same size? – Are both pizzas cut into the same number of
slices? – Do we know yet how much the pizza weighs?

Subitising(suddenly recognising)
• Seeing how many at a glance is called subitising.
• Attaching the number names to amounts that can be seen.
• Learned through activities and teaching.
• Some children can subitise, without having the associated number word.

1. Read the question aloud
2. Ask students whether there are any words they are not sure of. Explicitly teach any words using examples, pictures etc.
3. Does Peta keep any plums for herself?
4. Ask students to paraphrase the question

5. Ask students to make connections –have they shared something out when they are not sure how it will work out? Have you seen a problem like this before? When might this happen in real life?
6. What might the answer be or NOT be? Why?
7. Ask students to agree or disagree and explain why.

8. Re-read the information. Peta has some plums – we need to work out how many plums Peta has. Peta is giving some plums to her friends . We don’t know how many friends Peta has.
9. What else do we know and not know?
10. What can we infer?

If she gives each friend 4 plums, she will have 6 plums left over
What can you infer from this?

Determining Importance
Some students cannot work out what information is most important in the problem. This must be scaffolded through
• explicit modelling• guided practice• independent work

Summarising & Synthesising Journaling gives students an opportunity to
summarise and synthesise their learning of the lesson.
Use maths word wall words to scaffold journaling. Include words like “as a result”, “finally”, “therefore”, and “last” that denote synthesising for students to use in their writing. Or have them use sentence starters like ”I have learned that…”, “This gives me an idea that”, or “Now I understand that…”

How can I use this knowledge in other situations?
What did I work out, find out, do?
How did I work it out?
Were there any special conditions?
What conclusions did I draw?

We now know a lot more about how children learn mathematics.
Meaningless rote-learning, mind-numbing, text-based drill and
practice, and doing it one way, the teacher’s way, does not work.
Concepts need to be experienced, strategies need to be scaffolded and EVERYTHING needs
to be discussed.
