Pupils Talk in Maths

Authors
Abstract

If we encourage, or discourage, children to ask questions and discuss examples does this help their learning and their marks? Not in Maths, it appears. But there is a link between talk and children's attitude towards Maths, and for future learning that is probably very important. These, and other findings related to talk in class, are discussed.
