What is simplest and most effective way of developing problem solving skills at KS3?

The answer has to be one that involves giving the students a chance to practice their maths problem solving skills by working through hundreds of tried and tested activities.

And that is exactly what Mind Maths offers: hundreds of problems to solve in a copiable worksheet format complete with comprehensive teaching notes and advice on preparation, planning, plenaries and extension work.

The topics are broken down into four sections: number logic, rules, combinations and sequences, all within a CD containing over 400 pages of activities.

The problems can be used by individual students and within small groups as part of a unit on problem solving, or as extension exercises when students have completed a set piece of work.

They can also be used as elements of short projects on specific mathematical topics, or in an extra-curricular problem solving club.
