Celebrating Solutions

Celebrating Solutions

This feature focuses on how children's solutions to NRICH tasks can themselves be used as a teaching resource.  

The article outlines different ways that the published solutions on NRICH might enhance the teaching and learning of mathematics, and we have gathered together particular tasks and their accompanying children's solutions below, which might lend themselves to this focus.

Using NRICH Solutions as a Resource 
Age 5 to 11

In this article for primary teachers, we suggest ways in which children's solutions on the NRICH site can be used as a teaching resource in their own right.

Using NRICH Solutions with Your Class 
Age 5 to 11

The published solutions to this group of tasks lend themselves to use in the classroom with children.

Using NRICH Solutions with Your Colleagues 
Age 5 to 11

The solutions to these tasks could be used during a staff meeting to facilitate conversations about assessment.

The NRICH Project aims to enrich the mathematical experiences of all learners. To support this aim, members of the NRICH team work in a wide range of capacities, including providing professional development for teachers wishing to embed rich mathematical tasks into everyday classroom practice.

NRICH is part of the family of activities in the Millennium Mathematics Project.
