A brief outline of my presentation:


 * __Engaging upper primary students in a rich mathematical task__**

I began the lesson by showing my students a video clip of Ma and Pa Kettle. I then posed a question to my students 'what advice would give Ma and Pa Kettle'? I gave them a few minutes to write down some ideas in their books. They have started setting out their work with a working and thinking column. This activity proved to be quite successful in getting my students to be able to articulate their thinking better and all of them were able to write something down in regards to what they were thinking about this problem.

Students then shared their ideas in groups and came up with one solution they wanted to share with the whole class.

I will endeavour to add the video onto the wiki when i get back to school in case anyone else would like to access it (wish me luck)!! :)
