Session Description

This session will focus on the use of informal assessment in the primary mathematics classroom. We will explore a range of effective strategies for informally assessing students during lessons, allowing teachers to gain valuable insights into students’ understanding and proficiencies in mathematics. We will discuss the kinds of rich information that can be gathered in real-time, which is often not captured by formal assessments. We will then examine how this information can be utilised to provide immediate feedback and make adjustments to the teaching and learning in the moment.

Key takeaways:
1. Strategies for informally assessing students during lessons.
2. Information that can be gained through this form of assessment (particularly related to the mathematics proficiencies) .
3. How this information can be used to enhance learning.
