Target audience:
Maths subject leaders
Phase leaders
KS 1 class teachers
NQTs
Teaching assistants
Course objectives:
To ensure all children are problem solvers.
To consider the importance and development of a simple KS 1 problem solving tool kit
To examine all five problem solving types
To demonstrate how you can make every lesson a problem solving lesson
To show why it is important to give children a range of problem solving experiences.
During this course, delegates will have the opportunity to solve some short mathematical problems and consider the skills and strategies needed to solve them. Young children need access to a range of problems including problems using everyday contexts and/or resources, e.g. money related word problems and packs of pencils or balloons sold in packs. Every lesson can be a problem solving lesson from a quick questions posed at the beginning or end of a lesson, to more investigative work lasting the whole lesson. Post attendance, each delegate will be sent a folder of key documents and a copy of the presentation as a pdf file.
