Capture maths learning anytime and anywhere. The concrete – pictorial – abstract approach in one handy app!
Great for teaching for mastery in maths, the ‘Show it…Draw it!’ app lets you take a photo of your real resources, then use purpose-built whiteboard screens and maths tools to draw out your ideas, explain your thinking and prove it mathematically. All collected together on one handy page of A4!
Here’s what you can do with the versatile app:
Take and use photos of your resources (counters, cubes, tens frames, toys etc.) to instantly capture the initial ‘concrete’ stage in learning.
Move on to drawing with the intuitive whiteboard screen and tools where you can choose to represent your work however you wish, with a choice of squared, lined or plain paper backgrounds.
Deepen your thinking by explaining your reasoning with the choice of freehand writing tools or typed text.
Finally, express your learning in numbers and symbols: the abstract form. You could use a simple number sentence or even a complex algebraic equation. It really is up to you.
When you’re done, just save to your iPad or print as one page of A4!
The whole journey: quickly captured.
