The Power of One Piece of Paper

 

This resource contains…

A collection of Mathematics Mind Maps that can be used by Grade 8 as well as Grade 9 learners (but even by Grade 7 and Grade 10 learners).

The purpose of the resource is …

  • To make learners aware of ‘the power of one piece of paper’ so that they can see the big picture of a section of Mathematics. In this way they will also understand what concepts or rules they need to learn to master the basics of a section of work.
  • To empower learners to identify and use basic thinking skills that are required when doing Mathematics. This is important as good thinking skills will have a positive effect on a learner’s ability to figure something out and to persevere. As a result a learner can improve their Mathematical performance.

Although this resource is more than 10 years old it is even more relevant today than 10 years ago!
