Thinking and Working Mathematically

Thinking and Working

Mathematically

There are some important skills that you will develop as you

learn mathematics.

Specialising

is when I test examples

to see if they fit a rule or

pattern.

Characterising

is when I explain how

a group of things are
the same.

Generalising

is when I can explain and

use a rule or pattern to find
more examples.

Classifying
is when I put

things into groups and

can say what rule

I have used.
