"Check-Ups" is a series of short assessments to cover some of the curriculum strands for early mathematics. Some of the main strands of a mathematics curriculum for younger children are: number, shape, measure and data.A record can be kept of a child's attainment in the form of a checklist (tick boxes), and, if necessary, follow-up work can be provided,based on a child's performance in the checklists.
The intended
audience for "Check-Ups" can
be broken into two groups; the first is the group of students using
this resource to have their knowledge of baseline maths concepts
evaluated. My intended learning outcome for this group is that they
will have the basic maths concepts that they have acquired, evaluated
and consolidated by using my resource.
All
of the web pages have a navigation bar at the top. There are links
to the six main sections of the web resource: index, parents,
teachers, check-ups,
links and downloads.
The index, parents, teachers,
links and downloads
sections contain information on that particular topic, while the
check-ups section contains links to the
test pages. Some instructions on the tests are given on each test
page, and there is a short animation showing how to complete a test
on a separate help page. You can download
a short user guide in Word
or PDF format.
