Teach, Do, Practise, Behave: Fractions


In this course we will look how we can phase the learning of different topics using the teach, do, practise, behave model. 

In particular we will look at a snap shot of how we could teach a learning episode, including some useful tasks and models to use to offer opportunities to connect ideas and build true conceptual understanding. This course builds on previous courses using Cuisenaire Rods and bar modelling.
