Levelopaedia
Okay, so it's a silly made up word, but we hope that these might prove useful. The Levelopaedia provides exemplifications and probing questions for each of the 'assessment criteria' for every NC level. This resource has been produced by the Gloucestershire Maths Advisory Team, and combines elements of primary and secondary APP with new material based on ATM question stems. There is also an e-markbook to help in the process of building a picture of what pupils can do in mathematics.
- Level 1
- Level 2
- Level 3
- Level 4
- Level 5
- Level 6
- Level 7
- Level 8
- 'Building a Picture' e-markbook
