enjoyment
2-extend their range of mathematical skills and techniques and use them in more difficult, unstructured problems
3-use mathematics as an effective means of communication
4-acquire the skills needed to use technology such as calculators and computers effectively, recognise when such use may be
inappropriate and be aware of limitations.

Acknowledge student answers and if
applicable, add a few of your own.
Allow students to access their notes
Teacher circulates to make sure all
students are working
