I have been trying to give less away and thus spark more curiosity with one of my maths classes. I teach a set 2 with whom this works a treat, they get really into it and when it’s time to go they don’t want to. I teach a set 3 as well of the same grade 5 and I am a bit more reticent to try this as they are much needier, they ask for a lot of reassurance and they want things explained to them so many times… one could argue they are the kind of kids that most need to build resilience but I wonder if I give them less they will get more frustrated…
