Common misconception
When the amount of processing required for a task increases, children often default to inefficient strategies such as counting in ones if the use of efficient strategies are not yet automatic.
When solving problems, continue to focus upon, and discuss, the most efficient strategies to use to ensure that this thinking becomes automatic.
