Syllabus PLUS K-6 Maths Series 2

Series 2 aims to further develop teachers understanding of the Mathematics K-6 syllabus. Sessions will explore aspects of the syllabus including key concepts, working mathematically skills and language features to enable teachers to deepen their knowledge and to plan for teaching and learning.

SyllabusPLUS K-6 Maths Series 2

Adobe Connect is online and can be accessed via any computer with an internet connection. All sessions will be recorded. A link to each recording will be shared via email after each session. Schools are to nominate one teacher as the school contact for Syllabus PLUS. This contact person must enrol in each session via the appropriate link below. Session information will be emailed to this person for distribution to other staff. For teachers to have their professional learning recorded in MyPL@Edu, enrolments will need to occur at the school level. The principal (or a delegated staff member) must schedule an event for each session using the session name or Course Code details below. Teachers should then enrol in the event scheduled by their school. The principal will need to confirm teacher enrolment and mark completion once evaluations have been submitted online through MyPL@Edu.
