__Non-number units__

 * Non-number unit plans are usually planned by the team in team meetings.
 * The unit overview uses a simple '1,2,3' format and teams research or create rich problems or tasks, which are then listed on the plan.
 * It is then each individual teacher's task to ensure they cover the rich tasks listed in the unit overview and report back to their team at meetings where appropriate.
 * These unit plans are archived in Shared Teachers. You can find them in the Numeracy folder, in a folder called Non-Number Unit Plans.


 * Each individual teacher plans their own daily numeracy programme and group work.
 * Individual teachers need to ensure that sometimes they include rich tasks and open ended questions into their numeracy programme.

What will I assess?

 * Rich tasks may or may not be assessment tasks.
 * They may be used to gather prior knowledge before a unit begins.
 * They may be used at the end of a unit to see if children can apply what they learnt in new contexts. (Remember, a learner needs to apply knowledge in 3 different ways in 3 different contexts to really know it).
 * A rich task may simply be used as a chance for children to apply their learning in an authentic context.

====However, it would be beneficial for teams to plan and moderate a few samples of rich tasks over the course of the year. Data can then be collected across the whole team and plans can be set in place for teachers to respond to what the data tells them. It also encourages professional discussions and helps ensure everyone has a shared understanding of the achievement that is expected.====
