Spatial Reasoning CPD for Staff
One of our school aims is ‘Love to Learn.’ All staff value the opportunities for personal growth and development and recognise how this benefits our children. Last night, all Teachers and Teaching Assistants took part in some high-quality training to think spatially and explore what spatial reasoning means. Researchers have found evidence to suggest that spatial thinking plays an important role in arithmetic, word problems, measurement and geometry, and children’s spatial reasoning ability is a strong predictor of their overall achievement in mathematics. Reverend Ruth Beckett, as school community Governor, also joined the session.
