I really think schools should produce a guide to "new maths" terms!!
DS came home from school and announced that he had been doing "2 step problems" in numeracy. When I asked what they were he (completely straight faced, no sarcasm) replied that they were "problems that had 2 steps". Apparently they have been told they might move on to "3 step problems" if they get the hang of them. (I'm guessing those are problems that have 3 steps 
)
I have no clue what they are ... I am thinking something like "you buy 12 apples for 5p each and pay with a £1 coin. How much change would you get?" Someone please confirm or deny I am on the right lines ...
