Primary school children sometimes seem to pick up mathematical misconceptions more easily than the ‘proper’ methods and concepts we try so hard to teach them. We shouldn’t shy away from these misconceptions, though; research suggests we will develop better conceptual understanding if we confront them head on, discussing and exploring them explicitly with the children. This webinar looks at:

• Educational and psychological research into the way children learn;
• The teacher's role in building on and working through misconceptions;
• The misconceptions we should avoid - the ones we ourselves might be passing on.

Audience

• Heads and other senior leaders
