The programme is intended to be used by teachers, and would typically be facilitated by one or two teachers at the school, working with a larger group of teachers. While you could use the programme individually, and would hopefully find some inspiration from it, we recommend that you use the programme at least in a pair of teachers.

While you could use the programme individually, and would hopefully find some inspiration from it, we recommend that you use the programme at least in a pair of teachers, so that you are both able to give and receive feedback.


{{Todo|
If you are facilitating the programme (working with a group of teachers) we recommend that you facilitate the programme as a pair of facilitators. This is advantageous as you can prepare sessions together, take turns in the workshop, as well as give and receive feedback on how the sessions went.

{{todo| Say more about resources needed:
 
* mini-blackboards  
As key aspect of the programme is '''preparation''', which includes having the right resources to hand.
* collect useful things, such as plastic bottles
 
* think about how you can make measuring tapes etc
Mini-blackboards (or "mini-whiteboards" or "showboards") are used throughout this programme. Have a look at some of the sessions, to see how these are used, and make sure that you have some available. The mini-blackboards used in the pilot schools for this programme were made locally at relatively low cost.
 
You should also collect useful things, such as plastic bottles, and other items that can be used for interactive teaching. You will also need items like measuring tapes, and you might need to make some if you do not have any available.
 
Say something about computers / tablets, and the applications needed.
