Shafika, a Grade 10 Mathematics Literacy teacher, is planning her lessons ahead of week 3. She will be covering Rounding. She knows that the learners have learned about rounding when covering fractions in earlier grades and wonders to what extent she needs to reteach the concept.

She previews the resources in 2Enable under Week 3: Rounding.

Shafika decides to assign the learners homework which they must complete before the start of week 3. She asks the learners to view the video Rounding numbers and to complete the assessment.

She will monitor the achievement of the learners in the assessment and diagnose which questions have been poorly answered. Based on this diagnosis she will decide on her strategy to teach Rounding. This may involve a complete redesign of the way in which she has previously taught rounding.

Points to discuss:

• What are the challenges of this approach?
  
  
• How could the teacher modify her teaching of the topic if she has already used all the resources available on 2Enable? Find and share one resource that could assist the teacher in this task. Share the resource on this page.
