I did the course during the March 2019 holiday. One has to test a new thing before being able to comment. Therefore, after almost four weeks of teaching the thinking tools way, I can confidently testify to the following:·
-
My classes’ discipline is now excellent.·
-
The kids work, and the chalk is left to rest.·
-
Experiencing the joy when children achieve something they themselves did not think is possible.·
-
Parents are contacting me saying that their child can’t stop talking about maths.·
-
The thinking maps are fantastic, and they love the hats … they regularly ask me: “The red hat too, teacher?”·
We’re writing a test on Monday – I’m relaxed and my kids are ready. Thank you, Cas, a life-changing course!!
