Our education & residential care Our approach to learning Celebrating National Numeracy Day 2024 For National Numeracy Day on Wednesday, 22 May, young people in our Lower School mixed numeracy learning with arts and crafts - and created something which can be used in future lessons. The young people in the five Lower School classes were supported to make sensory number boards using a variety of craft materials. The sensory number boards will be used in classes to support future Numeracy sessions - so a great activity to get involved with today, and equipment that can be used going forward too. Visual instructions were used to guide young people in the activity: This was also a learning opportunity to explore extended core vocabulary around different colours: And also to practice choice-making around what materials the young wanted to use on their board: Natasha, our Learning Specialist for Numeracy, said: "It has been wonderful to see the young people in Lower School engaging in the activity and being creative."
