Using a worksheet well

Begin with a short explanation and one worked example. Let the child complete a manageable section, then ask them to explain their answer or show another method. For younger learners, pair the page with real objects, pictures, talk and play. If an item is difficult, return to the prerequisite skill and try again later.
