All pupils - able children included - need to be taught strategies
to enable their thinking skills to progress. They also need help
with developing different approaches to problem solving. A
sustained piece of work that requires perseverance, logical
strategies, and refinement of method and extension of the original
task is not the same as a straightforward quick-fix type problem.
Both types of problem solving need to be taught. This book presents
a series of activities that can be used with whole classes to
provide a curriculum for the teaching of problem solving and the
development of thinking skills. Each tried and tested investigation
is clearly explained with ideas on how to introduce the task to a
class, full solutions and resource sheets. Activities include
making 10p: a task to encourage systematic listing; tables and
chairs: working systematically and spotting patterns; polygons and
polyhedra: investigating diagonals, triangles, faces, edges and
vertices; hidden faces: investigating different shapes and sizes of
dice; and pond borders: investigating area and perimeter.

Activities include prisoners: a fun way of generating square
numbers; handshakes: exploring arithmetic progressions; T-shape: an
activity to lead pupils from numerical calculations to algebraic
generalizations; frogs: encouraging systematic working andlisting;
and opposite corners: an advanced piece of work for independent
learners.

Numicon builds a deep understanding of maths through a
multi-sensory approach, developing children's fluency, reasoning
and problem-solving. The Numicon Geometry, Measurement and
Statistics 2 Explorer Progress Book supports the activities in the
Numicon Geometry, Measurement and Statistics 2 Teaching Resource
Handbook and is a great assessment tool, allowing teachers to
gather evidence of children's achievements. The book contains fun
and engaging activities for children to complete. Each activity
links to a topic from the Teaching Resource Handbook, offering you
opportunities to assess individual children's understanding and
monitor progress in geometry, measurement and statistics. Children
have the freedom to record their answers in their own way, allowing
you to see their thinking, and the use of real-life contexts allows
you to assess children's ability to use and apply their maths
learning.
The Numicon Geometry, Measurement and Statistics 4 Teaching Pack
comprises a Teaching Resource Handbook and an Implementation Guide,
providing the core materials you need to start teaching children
aged 8 to 9. The Teaching Resource Handbook provides step-by-step
activities for developing children's understanding of geometry,
measurement and statistics. With a great emphasis on
problem-solving through real-world contexts and practical planning
and assessment guidance, the Teaching Resource Handbook will
support you with developing children's mathematical understanding
using Numicon. Photocopiable activities for home, linked to
classroom activities, give children the opportunity to practise and
discuss maths in a fun, engaging way. Accompanied with editable
planning and printable photocopy masters, you can personalise to
suit the needs of your children. The Implementation Guide offers
guidance on what Numicon is, gives advice on how best to implement
Numicon in your school and describes the Key Mathematical Ideas
that underpin work within this year. With information on the theory
behind Numicon, this guide will inspire you in building a secure
future in mathematics for all children.
