To Chunk or Not to Chunk?
This article, from the Association of Teachers of Mathematics (ATM) publication ‘Mathematics Teaching’, and is taken from MT227. Ian Thompson reviews the evidence of effective practice in the teaching of early arithmetic found by Ofsted and published in the document Good practice in primary mathematics: evidence from 20 successful schools. In this article, the focus is on those sections of the document that deal with the actual content of the arithmetic curriculum the children were taught; the specific procedures they used as a result of this teaching; and those they described in discussion with Ofsted inspectors.
