Poster Power
Bayley, Dawn
Australian Primary Mathematics Classroom, v9 n3 p31-32 2004
There are many ways for children to engage in learning and experiencing mathematics and posters are one of them. From the author's observation of many classrooms the most common mathematical poster to be seen was the faithful multiplication times-tables. The purpose of this article is to encourage the use of effective posters and other visual aides in the classroom to support learning and show some of the fun, exciting depth of mathematics that occurs in the real world. The use of posters to display and challenge appears to be an untapped resource. This area has great potential to engage children. Considering the percentages of learning occurring through each of the senses supports the old saying "a picture is worth a thousand words".
