@Math_m_Addicts I’ve used a similar graphic before. I “simply” flipped the tip of the ice berg to show them the proportions I encounter most and one amazing response was “Mr Faughey, it’s just like making dinner. You have to prepare all the food, cook, clean and then you get to sit down to eat!”

The sheer beauty of “setting” open-ended projects. A recent 4th class pupil’s project on China, equipped with just her class-generated checklist of points to include. Tweet word limit fails to come close to justifying this. #edchatie #SESE #primaryprojectwork
