Problem-solving 3-4

We live in an increasingly technological and information-rich world. Education is focusingmore on enquiry and skills-based approaches. Students, even at the early levels ofschooling, are expected to develop a range of skills, including problem solving skills. Creative thinking, using information appropriately and problem solving are important for students in the school curriculum and in daily life.
This book will help students learn how to apply mathematical skills in different contexts and explain how they got to their solutions. This book is easy for parents and teachers to use, and teaches multiple strategies forsolving problems, using challenging but supportive contexts. The approach is underpinnedby the Five E's approach to learning. The course will help student to:· Engage with problems meaningfully· Explore different options for approaching and solving problems· Explain how they are thinking· Elaborate on their working and processes and see connections between different areasof mathematics· Evaluate what worked and what didn't, learning from mistakes as well as successes
