Transcript Rapid Number Recall

Rapid Recall: An Introduction
1
Introduction
This initiative is predicated on
the belief that children are
better equipped to make
progress if they can recall
number facts very quickly.
These facts are ‘just known’
by children. By improving skills
of rapid recall, children can
apply their knowledge and
learning in a wider range of
contexts… resulting in more
rapid progress.

Number Facts

Introduction
In no way is this initiative intended to dominate the way we
teach number facts at Chapel St Leonards Primary School, but
simply sit alongside the current effective teaching and provide a
structure for checking progress.
It has been designed to allow us to find a simple way towards a
personalised approach to the setting of mathematics targets for
our pupils
It is strongly acknowledged that number facts are only of any use
if they are:
 revisited regularly; and
 applied and used in many different contexts.

7 steps
The Rapid Recall initiative establishes a
hierarchy or order to ensure that
children learn and practise their rapid
recall in a progressive way. It outlines 7
steps. Each of these steps is broken into
targets e.g. 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 etc.

It is not essential for the targets to be
tackled in the listed order.
You will have been given by your child’s
class teacher a current STEP which is
their target. This is your record of their
progress.

1
Personalisation?
Within a class at Chapel St Leonards
there will be children working across
a range of different steps matched
to their mathematical ability.
Rapid Recall works by focussing on
each child’s own individual targets.
5
Format ?
Each target is checked by children
completing a timed quiz. There are two
formats of quiz for each target (to take
account of pupils with a good memory!).
There will be timetabled opportunities for
the children to attempt the quizzes for their
current target.
6
Questions? Time?
Almost all the quizzes have 24 questions;
approximately 5 seconds per question
during a 2 minute time limit. A countdown
clock will be made available to the
children during the quiz.
Only teachers have access to the quiz
questions
7
Accuracy?
The children will need to pass 2 different
quizzes with 100% accuracy to complete
the target.
When this is the case it will be recorded by
the teacher, and your child will inform you
to keep your record at home up to date.
8
Rewarding Success?
Once all of the targets have been
achieved in a ‘STEP’ – the children
will be rewarded for their success
with a sticker/raffle ticket.
9
SEN and individual needs?
Whilst these tests will work for the vast
majority of pupils; there will be a minority for
whom they are either unsuitable or will
need amending. There cannot be any right
or wrong approaches here. Class teachers
will use their professional judgement to
decide what is best for your child.

How can I, as
a parent, help?
Please check and update your child’s current targets on
their ‘STEP’.
More detailed descriptions of each target can be found on
The blog – under the page titled Rapid Number Recall
We know at Chapel St Leonards that parental support is
vital to the successes of our pupils. Please endeavour to
help your child achieve their current target through
questioning.
Revisit old targets too – committing this learning to Long
Term memory
