Tutor Time: Problem-Solving (Standards)

One of a series exploring raising standards.
This series presents sessions that are very powerful and important tools in teaching what good behaviour looks like. They allow students to reflect deeply on why we have high standards in school, and encourage them to raise their standards.

This session: Problem-Solving

The session explores what problem-solving is and why it is important both in school context and the wider world. Students are presented with a range of problems to solve and are taught how to approach problems in general. This includes puzzles, discussions, a video and reflection task.

This was made for a Year 8 cohort, however this can be used with other cohorts also.

All tasks can be projected on screen, so no printing is needed.
Adaptable for a 20-30 minute PSHCE lesson or tutor time.
