Numeracy - Buddy Challenges

This week we were paired up with a buddy from our numeracy group.

Our task was to...
  • Create a maths test for a buddy using certain criteria.
  • Create an answer sheet for the test. 
  • Swap and complete. 
Each of our numeracy groups had different types of questions that their tests had to contain.

What did we already know about numeracy, our buddy and ourselves? What could we learn?

By doing this task, we were able to...
  • Reinforce our learning by teaching others.
  • Fill in any gaps in our learning (as we notice things that our peers know and we don't).
  • Have strategies explained in 'child-speak'.
  • Be reflective about our abilities and notice the skills we need to develop.
