This practical, hands-on workshop will enable participants to experience different games and activities suitable for classroom use with a range of numeracy and maths students. The activities focus on the development of core maths skills through the use of games, real-life and hands-on materials, as well as on enjoyment and having fun with maths. Some are whole group activities, others are small group work and others take an individual focus. The activities will illustrate alternative approaches to the traditional worksheet or textbook approach for teaching numeracy and maths. The activities have mainly been developed for youth and adult numeracy students but are suitable for all students, especially middle years and VCAL/VCE VM students.
