Where does Maths happen?

In Autahi, we are an energetic bunch! We like to get active when we are learning. This means that for us, Maths can happen just about anywhere.

On the Mat

Even when we're indoors, our Maths is action-packed, with plenty of opportunities to move and collaborate together.

Here we are in class playing a counting game with lots of opportunities to move and jump.


In the Garden

 

The Autahi garden has big blackboards, making it the perfect place to practice writing our numbers.


Outside Autahi

Stretching - and practising our counting - after having a run. 


At our tables...

... with lots of fun materials to help with our learning. 



We're using our fingers as well as materials to show our ideas.


Out in the Playground


This game combines counting and different ways to move across the playground, such as hopping, jumping and taking giant steps.





All this activity is grounded in UDL (Universal Design for Learning). This pedagogical approach responds to children's individual communication styles and preferred ways to access learning. For our energetic Autahi students, engaging mind and body together makes learning more accessible, memorable - and fun!
