Using Lesson Study to unpack the potential of the new Primary Mathematics Curriculum: Algebra

Activity: Other

Description

Guide pre-service teachers through two cycles of Lesson Study in the role of facilitator and knowledgeable other. Supporting pre-service teachers to study, plan, implement and reflect on a sequence of algebra research lessons that target pedagogical practices and mathematical proficiencies, thus facilitating them to take the role of curriculum developers.

Intentional exploration of new foci within the Primary Mathematics Curriculum (2023) (e.g., directed number operations) to inform our practice (module, programme level) and support pre-service and in-service primary teachers in developing appropriate knowledge for teaching. The research lessons aim to:
1.Reveal pupils’ capacity to discover and explore patterns with ‘Fibonacci series’ and ‘Pascal’s Triangle’
2.Explore of the use of rich and meaningful contexts alongside a vertical number line model to support pupils to develop conceptual understanding of directed number operations
