Numicon encourages children to explore maths using structured imagery and apparatus in order to understand and explain mathematical concepts. Children are enabled to develop fluency in numeracy by using a visual, practical base to develop conceptual understanding and recall. Numicon helps children to reason mathematically through the use of concrete objects and spoken language to explain and justify.
Teachers will be introduced to the various stages of the Numicon programme over the two sessions, and given to opportunity to work with the materials. An additional resources pack will be provided for all those attending.
