TEACHER GUIDE BOOK MATHEMATICS 2A [Science and Mathematics in English for SARAWAK]

This book is about:

• Differentiated Learning because we believe all pupils are unique and learn in different ways. With our three-tiered activities, no one is left behind.

• STEM integration because we believe in igniting pupils’ interests in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.

• HOTS because we believe pupils learn actively – our suggested activities are hands-on with higher order thinking skills embedded.

• 21st Century learning skills because we believe pupils should be prepared to handle the new millennium.

• Values integration

• Fun, Interesting and meaningful learning because we believe pupils learn best when they are actively participating, deeply involved, and closely engaged.

• Teachers being reflective practitioners because we believe teaching is not a chore but a profession that gets better with practice.

• Guiding Teachers and to be a Great Buddy for teachers because we believe this TGB can be your companion to help plan and deliver interesting lessons using resources available.
