Between covering the curriculum and ensuring every student stays engaged, it\u2019s easy to feel the pressure. That\u2019s why Education Perfect (EP) put together a quick list of ways to amplify your NAPLAN efforts and ensure your students feel confident in their literacy and numeracy skills ahead of the tests!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why NAPLAN preparation matters<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>NAPLAN is an important assessment that helps educators understand where their students strengths lie, and where there are knowledge gaps. It\u2019s an opportunity to see how they\u2019re progressing and where each student might need the most support. Preparing for the numeracy and literacy tests doesn\u2019t have to be stressful; with the right tools, educators can help every student feel more confident in their performance.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How EP can help with literacy and numeracy<\/strong><\/h3>\n<h4><b>1. Tailored learning paths<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EP provides <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.educationperfect.com\/analytics\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">personalised learning paths<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for each student\u2019s unique needs. For NAPLAN prep, this means your students can work through specific modules targeting literacy skills \u2013 like reading comprehension and writing conventions \u2013 as well as numeracy skills like problem-solving. This targeted approach helps students to focus on areas where they need the most improvement.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"wistia_responsive_padding\" style=\"padding: 62.5% 0 0 0; position: relative; margin: 2rem 0;\">\n<div class=\"wistia_responsive_wrapper\" style=\"height: 100%; left: 0; position: absolute; top: 0; width: 100%;\"><iframe class=\"wistia_embed\" title=\"NAPLAN Student View - Recommended Tasks Video\" src=\"https:\/\/fast.wistia.net\/embed\/iframe\/5bgmd6t703?seo=true&amp;videoFoam=true\" name=\"wistia_embed\" width=\"100%\" height=\"100%\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/fast.wistia.net\/assets\/external\/E-v1.js\" async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4><b>2.
