Hands on Maths              

This week it has been delightful to see Mrs Campbell engaging our Prep classes in hands-on maths lessons. Not only does Mrs Campbell use hands-on maths play to help students pay attention for much longer periods of time, she is also helping the students to gain a more well-rounded understanding of maths concepts. When children explore concepts like numbers, shape and measure through play, these things become an important part of their learning growth.
