YuMi Deadly Maths is the framework we use to teach

mathematics at our school!

This is what the grade 2s have been doing in Mathematics

and how we use the R.A.M.R. framework.

Reality Abstract Mathematics Reflection

Using the children’s REALITYREALITYREALITYREALITY,,,, we make connections to

mathematics and their real world.

Our REALITY (R): for time, was the students looking at all

things that tell time.

The children used their bodies, hands and minds to

abstract meaning and use materials to aid understanding.

ABSTRACTION (A): Students made a human analogue clock

using elastic bands and their bodies.

MATHEMATICS (M): The children apply and practise what they have learnt by

completing engaging activities, maths games and student led

quizzes.

A popular activity was making their own analogue clock.

Students also completed various tasks identifying o’clock, half

past, quarter past and quarter to on Analogue and Digital

clocks.

REFLECTION (R): We link our learning back to our REALITY

and reflect on how this will help us in the real world. For example: we can tell the time when we need to; lunchtime,

recess and home time and a five minute countdown.

Students completed a pre and post-test. The difference in

results was amazing. The students did an outstanding job

understanding time through the YuMi R.A.M.R. framework.
