Selecting students for Number Partners

Selecting students

Schools are responsible for choosing the students who will benefit most from time with a Number Partner. Choose two or three students to work in a group with each Number Partner for at least one term. These might be students who:

  • are not confident at contributing in class
  • have difficulty working with others, especially at taking turns
  • require additional time and support to develop their numeracy skills
  • are particularly confident in maths and need time to stretch their knowledge and understanding.

You might wish to inform parents and carers that their children are working with a Number Partner.
