Numeracy
Children at Miramar Central School will be thinkers, talkers, sense makers, problem solvers who collaborate together to contribute to their own and others’ learning, engagement and success.
The 3 foundations of numeracy taught at primary school are: Number & Algebra, Geometry & Measurement and Statistics
At Miramar Central, numeracy is a core subject which is also integrated across the daily programme e.g. cooking, collecting data for science. We believe numeracy should be practised and learnt in real-life context to enrich the understanding of mathematical concepts.
