The six books in the 'Maths Problem Solving' series have been written for teachers to use during the numeracy lesson. They cover the 'solving problems' objectives from the numeracy framework. There is one book for each year group. The Year 5 book contains clear photocopiable resources organized into three chapters; Making decisions, Reasoning about numbers or shapes, Problems involving 'real life', and money or measures. Each chapter contains six lessons, one to be used each half term. The length of the problems in each book vary with short, medium and more extended problems for the children to solve. The problems on each page are mixed so the children do not assume that the solution process is the same each time but have to understand the problem. The problems are varied in their complexity. Some are one-step problems, other two-step and the vocabulary differs in each problem. The problems are presented in a meaningful, age-appropriate manner with topics the children will find relevant. They will be motivated to find the answer.

The goal of the book is to technologically enhance the preparation of mathematics schoolteachers using an electronic spreadsheet integrated with Maple and Wolfram Alpha - digital tools capable of sophisticated symbolic computations. The content of the book is a combination of mathematical ideas and concepts associated with pre-college problem solving curriculum and their extensions into more advanced mathematical topics.The book provides prospective and practicing teachers with a foundation for developing a deep understanding of many concepts fundamental to the teaching of school mathematics. It also provides the teachers with a technical expertise in designing spreadsheet-based computational environments.Consistent with the current worldwide guidelines for technology-enhanced teacher preparation, the book emphasizes the integration of context, mathematics, and technology as a method for teaching mathematics. Throughout the book, a number of mathematics education documents developed around the world (Australia, Canada, England, Japan, Singapore, United States) are reviewed as appropriate.

Can be used as a learning tool in conjunction with our other maths materials. This is useful preparatory material for children who will eventually be sitting for the 11+ grammar school or independent school exams. Provides practice for GL Assessment, CEM and all other styles of mathematical tests. During an intense learning phase children also improve their maths skills through a testing process, provided that the main emphasis is focused on acquiring techniques from our workbooks. The tests are not exclusively book specific but they are progressive and give extra practice in most of the techniques covered in the Maths workbooks.

These practice papers are designed to be completed after our 11+ Maths workbooks and testbooks. They should be used as learning reinforcement and are essential for exam preparation. Each practice paper simulates the format and content of the 11+ exam and may be completed as a standard or multiple-choice test. Each test should take about 40 minutes, however it is more important that a child completes the test accurately and does not rush. Children will speed up naturally with practice.

Christmas Activities for KS1 Maths contains fun festive mathematical activities, designed harness children's enthusiasm at this exciting time of the year and keep them on task. The activities are linked to the National Numeracy Strategy targets, so integrating them into your planning is easy. Reception children will practise counting from left to right and add one on to help Santa load his sleigh. Year 1 children will sort toys into pairs and estimate the number of stars. Year 2 children will have the opportunity to learn about money when buying presents and can practise counting back in 10s with starry numbers. Now you can exploit the children's natural enthusiasm for the season and inspire them to create especially good work with this bank of fun, stimulating ideas and activities - so you can all enjoy the run-up to Christmas!

remove remove This book was developed with the caring and concerned adult in mind and is a one-stop for anyone who would like to help a child develop problem solving thinking. They will become adept at the use of problem solving strategies over the course of their development from birth. For each age range, this book provides developmental information, relevant mathematical concepts, sample problems with multiple solutions, and finally activities to engage with as a family in order to develop mathematical thinking and problem solving skill.

Concerns about quality mathematics education are often posed in terms of the types of mathematics that are worthwhile and valuable for both the student and society in general, and about how to best support students so that they can develop this mathematics. Concerns about equity are about who is excluded from the opportunity to develop quality mathematics within our current practices and systems, and about how to remove social barriers that systematically disadvantage those students. This collection of chapters summarises our learning about the achievement of both equity and quality agendas in mathematics education and to move forward the debate on their importance for the field.

Guided Math Lessons in Third Grade provides detailed lessons to help you bring guided math groups to life. Based on the bestselling Guided Math in Action, this practical book offers 16 lessons, taught in a round of 3-concrete, pictorial and abstract. The lessons are based on the priority standards and cover fluency, word problems, fractions and place value. Author Dr. Nicki Newton shows you the content as well as the practices and processes that should be worked on in the lessons, so that students not only learn the content but also how to solve problems, reason, communicate their thinking, model, use tools, use precise language, and see structure and patterns. Throughout the book, you'll find tools, templates and blackline masters so that you can instantly adapt the lesson to your specific needs and use it right away. With the easy-to-follow plans in this book, students can work more effectively in small guided math groups-and have loads of fun along the way! Remember that guided math groups are about doing the math. So throughout these lessons you will see students working with manipulatives to make meaning, doing mathematical sketches to show what they understand and can make sense of the abstract numbers. When students are given the opportunities to make sense of the math in hands-on and visual ways, then the math begins to make sense to them!

Written by popular author and consultant Nicki Newton. Based on the bestselling book Guided Math in Action. Contains easy-to-implement activities for fourth grade guided math groups.
