Skills revision for NAPLAN 2024
By Michelle Kueh, VP (Mangahigh.com) | Published January 17th, 2024
NAPLAN, the National Assessment Program – Literacy and Numeracy, is a standardized testing scheme in Australia designed to assess the literacy and numeracy skills of students in years 3, 5, 7, and 9. It is an important evaluation tool used by educators to gauge the performance of students and schools across the nation.
For many Australian teachers, NAPLAN poses a significant challenge, particularly for year 3 and year 5 teachers who guide their students through this annual testing process. The standardised nature of NAPLAN prompts educators to seek effective ways to prepare their students, ensuring they have the necessary knowledge and skills to navigate the assessments successfully.
One valuable approach to preparing students for NAPLAN, particularly in the realm of mathematics, is leveraging resources like Mangahigh. Mangahigh adopts a unique strategy that focuses on helping students recall and reinforce their previous learnings.
