Patterns and Problem Solving
O'Brien, Tom; Wallach, Chris
Mathematics Teaching, n213 p3-5 Mar 2009
The authors document their experience of working with 6-year-olds over several weeks. They share some observations that arise from weekly sessions they conducted which have been under way for several years and which have been widely reported. These observations show the payoff of a problem-solving approach to learning.
