Thinkers

‘Thinkers’ is a collection of activities to provoke mathematical thinking. The ideas are suitable for learners from KS2 to AS/A2 level. The book contains sixteen different contexts for exemplifying the general and generalising the particular which are processes at the heart of ‘doing mathematics’. There are examples of the way in which teachers can use the techniques for any topic in mathematics.

These are not ‘bolt-on’ activities but can be integrated into everyday mathematics lessons to promote a classroom culture in which learner-generated examples open a window on mathematics that textbook exercises leaves closed. ‘Thinkers’ will enhance the teaching and learning of mathematics for new and experienced teachers, and for learners from 8 to 18 (and beyond).

Authors: Chris Bills, Liz Bills, John Mason, Anne Watson.
