This one-hour workshop offers a practical way to plan Maths lessons so that students can learn new topics with ease. Many teachers face similar challenges when they introduce a new topic in class.
If you have found any of the following in your own classroom, this workshop will help:
- students losing their way when a topic has too many steps
- textbooks moving too quickly or skipping small but important skills
- struggling to find time for revision
- the same basics needing to be taught again and again
Write your awesome label here.
What will be covered
You will learn how to break a topic into small, clear steps, identify the key skills students need at the start, and teach these in a logical order so that the main concept becomes the natural next step. This might sound obvious, but there are subtleties here that need to be considered, and these can make a huge difference in how students access and understand new content. You will also receive a simple planning template to use with any Junior Cycle topic.
This approach not only supports better understanding but also makes it easy to build regular, low-stakes revision into everyday lessons.
This workshop will include examples of how we might plan different topics in this way, with time for discussion and questions. I will draw on my 25 years of teaching experience, as well as my work as a Junior Cycle examiner and current Leaving Certificate examiner, to share methods that have worked well in real classrooms
