Abstract
This article uses the Singapore mathematics curriculum framework as a heuristic device to
summarise the learning difficulties in mathematics experienced by primary school pupils.
It suggests several general instructional strategies that might bring about a strategic
approach to learning mathematics. This approach aims to give pupils a stronger awareness and control of their learning so that they can achieve a better understanding of mathematics at their level.
