I like to teach students practically including objects and also some creative ideas.Encourage the child to visualise the maths by drawing diagrams and using concrete materials to model the maths.For students to use mathematics flexibly and grapple with complex problems, they need more than facts and procedures. Display words on posters around the classroom.Making a concept visual allows students to see how an abstract concept translates to a physical scenario. Use illustrated problems or hands-on activities, and encourage students to use visual methods of their own (e.g. drawing) when solving with others exposes students to different mathematical approaches, which they can use to think more flexibly.Use the “puzzle pieces” approach, where each learner is given a unique piece of information to share with the rest of the group to solve a problem. That way every student has to get involved, and everyone has something to contribute regardless of ability level.A variety of formative and summative assessment types will allow you to
Assess conceptual learning, as well as fact recall
Build on what students know, instead of just assessing what they don’t
Notice gaps in the learning before the final test Strategic questions can help turn a regular ‘chalk and talk’ lesson into a deep learning experience, Approximate relevant real-world scenarios, or (even better) invite students to get hands-on with real items.
Encourage students to collaborate and explore different perspectives.
Don’t spell out exactly what students need to do. Let them trial different procedures until they settle on a strategy that works instead.
