Importance of Mathematical Thinking

When am I ever going to need to…? 1 Complete a long division 2 Solve quadratic equations 3 Apply a skill in an unfamiliar situation 4 Explain an approach to solving a problem 5 Think flexibly 6 Find efficient and accurate solutions 7 Test a conjecture 8 Consider alternative ways of thinking 9 Think deeply about an outcome

What is Mathematical Thinking?

What is Collaborative Lesson Research?

Where are we now? Mathematical Thinking in our school Collaborative CPD in our school

9999 + 5 Why did I choose these numbers? What mathematical thinking am I trying to prompt?

9999 + 5 Spend time working together on the mathematical thinking, and how it applies from YR to Y 6.

Task 1

Choose one aspect of mathematical thinking to develop through collaborative lesson research in school. Collaborative Lesson Research How does it link to School Development Plan? Where are challenges? How can this be the most useful it can be?
