Why choose Problem Solving and Reasoning Skills?

Open-ended activities motivate students to choose their own way of solving a problem and to discuss ideas together.
Students are encouraged to use a growth mindset. Challenge activities are available to stretch students further, often bringing together concepts from the lesson or previously practised skills.
A problem solving record in each Practice Book allows students to reflect and discuss at the end of each unit which strategies they have used.
Mapped to all key curricula including OIC, ENC and Cambridge Primary.
