Finding the time to put together a well thought-through staff meeting or INSET can sometimes be the final straw that breaks the camel’s back. That’s why I decided to share some of the staff meetings and training slides that I have spent previous hours creating - so you don’t have to! All of these PowerPoints contain notes to explain some slides a little further (so that if you want to you can pass them off as your own!) This staff INSET focuses on how the mastery of early number and subitising can lead to a better understanding and application of multiplication and division skills. This in turn ensures a greater depth comprehension than simply quick times tables recall. 26 slides with lots of mastery examples for all primary ages.
