More DescriptionMany teachers clearly see that their students lack motivation and self-esteem when it comes to maths, and poor retention of knowledge means that skills are forgotten as soon as the test is over. Peter Corkill provides many adaptable strategies to engage students in the mathematics classroom and help them develop the techniques to become effective learners. These strategies, developed through practical use in classrooms, challenge students to take greater responsibility for their own learning and make links between different mathematical concepts by developing their own theories and discovering patterns. This insightful resource will help you make your classroom a richer environment where students feel safe enough to take risks and share their mathematical insights.
