Description
It is described everywhere and there are often school agreements about it. Every day we get started with automation. Yet it is a challenge and it happens less often than hoped.
Why Automate
Especially from group 5 it is useful that you can automate. The method asks for row sums. When children do not master automating well, it simply takes a long time to do everything. They start to dread it and arithmetic is quickly experienced as stupid. There are also children who start with a sum and at every step they are busy calculating. So busy that they lose track and have to start over again.
When children have automated sums up to ten, sums about ten, and multiplication tables, school time becomes a lot more fun. Math lessons go a lot faster, leaving more time for real math.
What is Our Remedy?
There are already many wonderful programs and methods in circulation. During this workshop we will also mention a number of them. You can use all of these and yet this is not necessarily the solution. The best tool is variation. By stimulating a different way of automating each period, you keep it fun for the children. What is underestimated is the fact that you as a teacher must continue to enjoy it. A passionate teacher is much more effective than a sleepy teacher who offers the same work form year after year.
During This Workshop
You will receive many different ways and materials to offer automation. It is inevitable that there will occasionally be assignments that you already use. We offer various work forms in a clear and fun way. We will send you a planning schedule so that you can put all the different assignments, ways, work forms in an annual plan.
In summary. You will be presented with many different assignments and materials. We will present some work forms and you will experience others. All this with the aim of filling your toolbox in a practical way.
How Does It Work
