PARENT FORUM TUESDAY 12 TH MAY PROBLEM SOLVING

At Resurrection our vision for mathematics is: To provide targeted, challenging, open- ended experiences which develop real life problem-solving and questioning skills that are vital for building students’ understanding, engagement and confidence.

At Resurrection our lessons are designed to: encourage students to become self-motivated, confident learners through inquiry and active participation in challenging and engaging experiences. develop students who are successfully numerate problem-solvers in everyday life teach the rules of mathematics and allow them time to practise these rules in a variety of ways Work in partnership with the parents. Students learn maths at home too, whether it's helping with cooking, playing board games and shopping Reduce the fear of maths that many students acquire

What coins and notes will be used? 4.Is it best value to buy the Coles home brand cereal or Weetbix? 5.I have a quarter of tank of petrol will it last me to the end of my trip?
