Education Consultancy
Charlotte Wilkinson holds a BEd (Hons) specialising in Primary Maths with ongoing study in the area of teaching and learning primary mathematics. She also holds qualifications in Adult Education. She has worked in Education as a classroom teacher, senior teacher, deputy principal, adviser and private consultant.
Charlotte is the author of Pearson Mathematics and Maths Aotearoa written for the NZ curriculum and has worked on projects with Pearson UK and Maskew Miller Longman SA with publications in Zimbabwe and Nigeria.
Charlotte, along with her husband Nigel designs and publishes Wilkie Way numeracy resources available from the online store and the members area of this website.
Charlotte's philosophy is that every student is capable of learning maths. Every student needs to be exposed to a rich variety of mathematical learning opportunities that challenge their thinking and builds their knowledge. Exposure alone is insufficient, it requires a teacher with knowledge of the maths inherent in the learning opportunity and knowledge of the student to know how much support is required.
Challenge + Support = Learning
School Based Professional Learning Development
Teacher Only Days - a single day with content requested from the school.

Self Directed Professional Learning
I have written three teacher handbooks - available from the online store to assist teachers in building their knowledge and with suggestions for teaching activities.
Numbers and the Number System - for in depth understanding of the base 10 number system (Place Value)
Fractions Decimals and Percentage - fractions are used to represent different concepts - gain an understanding of all the concepts.
Arithmetic Operations - properties of arithmetic, teaching & learning basic facts, using symbols and expressions
Teaching& Learning Junior Maths
While all teachers can "do" the maths at this early level do you fully understand what the students are actually learning at a conceptual level and how the conceptual understanding builds up and connects together.
