Problem Solving in Maths

It is important for students to be able to approach mathematical problems in a number of ways.  During our problem solving sessions, the children use material (counters, popsticks, cubes) and drawings to help them form a strategy for reaching a solution.  At the end of the lesson we discuss how effective their strategy was and if it helped them to find the answer.
