As I am sitting in proctoring the exams, I am watching the children process through numeracy problems... one of the problems is a word problem that states... "A goat has 4 legs, how many legs do 5 goats have."
To solve this, the 14 year old child next to me draws 5 goats with 4 legs each and then counts all of them. He came up with the correct answer... just very creatively.
While I am going from class to class, I am noticing some of the teachers forgot to take down their number posters. Very quickly the children realize this and I see eyes wandering. Once I noticed this I started going around taking down posters. Will also reminded the teachers to do this during staff meeting.
