GO Maths is the first core mathematics program to provide a developmentally appropriate teaching sequence for Prep to Year 9. Developed by a team of practising mathematics educators who have a proven track record of translating research findings into effective classroom practice, GO Maths
- develops thinking strategies
- reflects the content, intent, and methodology of contemporary mathematics syllabi
- eases the burden of planning, teaching and assessing, and recording student progress
- suggests links to other innovative ORIGO support resources
- is fresh and inviting for all students.
In 2005 GO Maths received a national award from the Australian Publishers Association for excellence in educational publishing.
How it works
Each level of the program consists of a number of teacher and student components that provide a complete package for teachers to
- teach the syllabus outcomes
- assess student achievement of the syllabus outcomes (informally and formally)
- record student progress
and students to
- apply new strategies
- practise mental computation strategies.
