I recently attended a conference with Eric Frangenheim. One of the strategies he uses is A or B thinking. We were starting a new maths topic, mult/div, so I decided to start it off with a discussion on who is is happier - multiplication or division. After think, pair ,share, they shared their ideas. I had many varied answers, mult is happier because it gets bigger, makes more friends, division gets smaller and would eventually disappear. One of my favourites was 'division is happier because multiplication is wrong', and as he said it he crossed his arms over to make an x, very divergent thinking.(JM)

Thank you very much for lending us the polycom. It worked really well and had a most interesting half an hour. The children each asked a question about Peter Lynn and she gave very full answers. It was interesting to hear the children say you didn't ask the why but Mrs Lynn gave you the why part. Jan
