Explaining mathematical content and proficiencies. Written by leading mathematical educators, Paul Swan, Linda Marshall and Jack Bana.

Maths handbook for teachers and parents explains in detail the content of the Australian Mathematics Curriculum from Years 3–9 and in some cases beyond. It also includes a brief coverage of the content from early childhood up to Year 2.

The authors, all experienced mathematics educators, give the simplest explanations of how to tackle maths problems, providing background information and clearly-worked examples. If you are not sure of the steps such as those required to teach students how to create and read a graph, complete a calculation or solve an equation in algebra, then this book is for you. There are also substantial sections on geometry, measurement and probability.

The authors have tried to help the reader develop an understanding of the processes behind the mathematics taught and used in school. They have emphasised the use of number sense when performing a calculation and the important processes for solving problems, while at the same time explaining the reasons behind the processes. This book is the perfect companion to the best selling Maths terms and tables.

The Maths Box series is a set of six boxes of cards, one for each of the grades from Grade 1 - Grade 7. They have been written to support the teaching and learning of the new Mathematics Curriculum, and there is at least one card for each programme of study objective.

The cards are grouped by curriculum strands and sub-strands, in the same order as they appear in the National Curriculum document. Separate answer cards allow learners to work independently, at their own pace, whilst keeping a record for their own and teacher reference.

Each box contains:

• 75 high-interest, brightly-coloured cards (2 of each card, 150 cards in total)
• 75 colourful answer cards
• 1 comprehensive, photocopiable Teachers Guide

Each Teachers Guide contains:

• a scope and sequence chart, detailing the curriculum objective(s) covered by each card information on how to use and organise the box in the classroom
• an explanation of the different parts of the activity and answer cards
• answer recording sheets for pupils tracking, and recording sheets for pupils and teachers, to aid assessment
• a list of materials and equipment needed for each card
• full-colour posters to aid teaching of card content and strategies, and/or display photocopiable activity sheets to support, practise and extend the card activities
• a full-colour copy of each answer card a comprehensive glossary

New wave mental maths is a series of six learner workbooks written for South African primary schools. New wave mental maths provides an ideal platform for the development of mental skills and mathematical concepts.

New wave mental maths provides:

• Comprehensive coverage of mental mathematics concepts.
• Opportunities for consolidation of mathematical concepts.
• Practice in speed of recall.
• Opportunities for reinforcement of ongoing mathematical concepts.

In language it is common for a parent, teacher or student to make use of a dictionary to check the spelling, meaning, pronunciation or origin of a word. In mathematics, however, where language can often prove to be a stumbling block, it is rare for a dictionary to be consulted.

In this publication we have tried to give brief and simple explanations of terms without sacrificing accuracy.

Features:

• comprehensive listing of common mathematical terms, tables and concepts
• brief yet accurate definitions
• written in unambiguous, easily understood language
• explanatory diagrams and examples used whenever appropriate or necessary
• topic-based overview of key ideas in the latter half of the book
• a highly accessible resource for users at all levels–students, teachers and parents
