Fun Ideas to Encourage Deeper Learning at Home (Downloadable PDF)

Description

Firstly a little clarification on what we mean by ‘deeper learning’.

What is meant by deeper learning?

There can sometimes be an emphasis on questions and tasks that concentrate on ‘remembering’ information and concepts, and on ‘understanding’ them. However, all children, and especially those with high learning potential*, need regular opportunities to deepen their learning.

This ‘deeper learning’ can be provided through opportunities where the children can apply their knowledge and understanding through rich and sophisticated problems.
In this booklet we will look at fun ways to try some of these at home.
