Start Of Day Activity
WHAT IS IT?
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 year’s 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.
