My learners have started with some of the problem solving in the Grade 10 book. Very good and challenging. Some struggle, but they learn a lot. My famous answer when they struggle comes from the teacher guide, Module 7.2, Hints and Strategies, bullet 4: "It is OK to struggle", then I add: :it's what you do about it that matters" This is good revision and challenges them to THINK and work out strategies, refer back to the modules, ask questions.
Saves me much time not having to think out these myself!
