S.O.D.A.Start Of Day Activity

• WHAT IS IT?
• Up to 10 mathematics questions per day based on
  the Renewed Framework for Mathematics.
• Questions 1-5 consolidate maths from the previous
  unit.
• Questions 6-10 are based on the previous years
  coverage of the next unit (following Block
  sequence A B C D E).
• This will support you in pitching the learning
  appropriately for the next unit and gathering
  evidence for APP.
• WHAT IS IT NOT?
• SODA is NOT intended to be used during any part
  of the daily mathematics lesson.
• It is an ADDITIONAL resource to support the
  CONSOLIDATION of learning which has taken place
  previously.

S.O.D.A.Start Of Day Activity

• WHEN?
• During the registration period at the start of
  the day.
• Pupils could record their answers in a SODA
  book.
• Go through the questions and discuss strategies
  the children used with the pupils during
  registration.
• Ensure that you model the correct mathematical
  vocabulary and always encourage the children to
  use it correctly.
• HOW?
• Use SODA as it stands or personalise the
  questions for your pupils by adapting / replacing
  them.
