The main aims of this pack are to support teachers to nurture the mathematical promise of children and provide cognitively challenging activities for them. Detailed explanations and solutions are provided. Advice on setting up portfolios of children’s work and proformas for their comments are provided.
Activities:
are set in motivating contexts.
most are open-ended with multi‑levels of outcomes.
provide opportunities for mathematical discussions.
can be used with a wider range of ability groups for enriching their learning experiences and to be creative mathematicians.
help to develop mathematical processes of problem solving, investigating and reasoning.
There is an Introduction and 2 other parts in the pack:
Introduction: This provides guidance on how to identify mathematical talent and how to use the pack effectively to nurture mathematical promise.
Section 1 Challenges: There are 40 ‘Challenges’ in this section. These can be used as ‘starter’ activities: as problem-solving activities at designated times or as general enrichment activities. Each activity may take 15-20 minutes. Detailed solutions are provided.
Section 2 Investigations: There are 40 investigations in this section. Most of these are likely to take more than one teaching session. Each investigation has a teacher’s page, which provides guidance on how to use the activity. Most of the activities are open-ended; therefore it should be possible to use them with a wider range of ability groups. The activities can also be used for homework or with enrichment groups. Solutions and extensions are provided. A pupil’s page introduces each activity to the child in an accessible way.
