Description

This Teacher Resource Guide accompanies the My Problem-Solver Junior poster, part of the Wild Teak Studio Thriving Classroom Series.

Designed for teachers working with children aged 6–10, the guide offers practical ways to introduce and explore the six problem-solving steps, helping children approach everyday challenges with greater confidence, curiosity and independence.

Inside the guide, you’ll find:

• Clear explanations of the six problem-solving steps.
• Discussion questions to encourage observation, reflection and independent thinking.
• Practical suggestions for bringing problem-solving into everyday classroom life.
• Four engaging, hands-on activities that encourage experimentation, collaboration and perseverance.
• Cross-curricular examples linking problem-solving to Mathematics, Science, Social Sciences, Art and Physical Education.
• Guidance for adapting activities and support to different learning needs.
• Ideas for observing progress, encouraging reflection and extending learning beyond the classroom.

The emphasis is on developing thoughtful, flexible problem-solvers rather than following a rigid sequence or finding the perfect answer.

More than a poster companion, this guide helps teachers turn everyday challenges into meaningful opportunities for learning and growth.
