“There was a definite buzz from the pupils.  They enjoyed being outside and using their maths skills. It was clear that the students were using a wide range of maths skills, from numeracy to reasoning, without realising it.   I was particularly delighted to see my Year 4 children using measuring skills, data handling, problem-solving, shape, which I have taught so far this year and using appropriate vocabulary and ‘maths talk’.   It made maths come more alive for them. Thank you again for the excellent service provided.”

“Thank you for this week’s World Book Day workshop with Bookman. The children and staff thought Bookman was brilliant and the children got a lot out of the visit. Organising a workshop for the whole school can sometimes be a little stressful but working with you and the rest of your team has been really easy and organised so thank you!”

“The poems look amazing and I am really excited to send these home with the children. The day was a huge success and the teachers really enjoyed the CPD. Thank you for such a wonderful experience.”

“It was by far our most popular event during maths week. The students enjoyed the competitiveness of the trading game, it was great for their group and negotiating skills. The delivery and hosting of the activity was superb!”

“I will continue to include as creatives workshops in my intervention weeks – everything from planning to delivery to follow up is excellent!”

The children learnt how prevalent maths is within the world in which we live, particularly based on things that they do every single day. They realised how all aspects of maths work together during problem-solving to enable them to solve the problems and crack the codes. Even areas of the maths that we have yet to cover, the children were able to use their prior maths learning to help inform their judgements and answers. Delivery was excellent and the children absolutely loved the workshop – thank you.
