Unlock the beauty of mathematics…

Hello and welcome to a very special edition of The GEN Report, your weekly dose of inspiration and insight for the global education community.

Unlock the beauty of mathematics…

When we talk to teachers in schools around the world, they often lament a similar problem: many students lack sufficient automaticity with key number bonds to engage with the mathematics curriculum in a meaningful way.

Having taught in schools (often in the most challenging circumstances) for many years, we have lived this experience and can relate to the sense of frustration and deflation it causes.

Designed to support all students in developing automaticity with key facts and tested across multiple schools in a range of contexts, our Bond Builders intervention allows you (and your colleagues) to focus on helping your students develop a love of mathematics which, sadly, is impossible to develop if they are locked on the outside.

One of the best things is that it only takes a few minutes a day to get the full impact of Bond Builders and hundreds of students are already experiencing the benefits of its use. If you would like to find out more you can visit www.alta-education.com/bond-builders or contact us at [email protected]. Onboarding is taken care of by ALTA and we provide free training for schools who sign up because we want your pupils to get the most out of Bond Builders as much as you do.

The GEN Report is all about bringing you the highest-quality content and, in this special edition, you will find something to read, watch and listen to as we explore the theme of Number Bonds.

We’ve known for a long time that mathematics is a series of interconnected ideas. At its simplest, this means that different mathematical concepts are related to each other in different ways. For example, the concept of multiplication is related to the concept of addition, and the ideas of graphing and equations are related through…
