      The primary school mathematics syllabuses in Singapore as of the year 2020 reinforces that Big ideas are central to the learning of mathematics. In support of the push to teach for big ideas, a research study is presently underway. A part of it is on the professional development (PD) of primary school mathematics teachers. As part of the PD teachers attempted a mathematical task as measure of the big idea, Equivalence, in an online environment at the start of their PD. Data from the task show that teachers, were generally not cognisant of the big idea of equivalence when solving the task. They were also unable to distinguish between a heuristic (diagrams) and a mathematical idea about relationships, specifically equivalence as in the mathematical task.
