Workshops

Workshops are teacher-led, interactive activities designed to help you demonstrate concepts in an open-ended way, encourage meaningful classroom discussions, and support collaboration.

They are presented live to your whole class, making them ideal for in-class teaching moments where students think, respond, and explore ideas together.

Workshops are available for both Mathematics and Financial Literacy, with content tailored to each subject.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I assign workshop activities to students?

No. Workshops cannot be assigned to students for independent work. They are designed to be teacher-led and presented live to the whole class.

How is it recommended to use Workshops?

Use them live in class to demonstrate a concept, guide discussion, and explore examples together before independent practice, or as a conclusive discussion.

Can I adapt a Workshop to match what I’m teaching in class?

Yes. Workshops are flexible: you can choose examples, adjust inputs, and focus on the parts most relevant to your lesson.

Can I prepare a Workshop in advance and save it for later?

Yes. Some Workshops let you save your progress, so you can set things up ahead of time and load it later when you’re ready to teach.
