Abstract

Here accessible tools which can support learners to develop mathematical resilience are discussed, including the growth zone model, the hand model of the brain, how to trigger the relaxation response, and the ladder metaphor of accessibility. The importance of a nurturing and safely challenging environment that meets learners’ needs and enables them to overcome previous negative experiences is also discussed along with how such an environment can be established.
