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.

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

Through she's universally known as the creator of The Tale of Peter Rabbit, Beatrix Potter did so much more. This is the true story about how she helped save the English countryside!

Growing up in London, Beatrix Potter felt the restraints of Victorian times. Girls didn't go to school and weren't expected to work. But she longed to do something important, something that truly mattered. As Beatrix spent her summers in the country and found inspiration in nature, it was through this passion that her creativity flourished.

There, she crafted The Tale of Peter Rabbit. She would eventually move to the countryside full-time, but developers sought to change the land. To save it, Beatrix used the money from the success of her books and bought acres and acres of land and farms to prevent the development of the countryside that both she and Peter Rabbit so cherished. Because of her efforts, it's been preserved just as she left it.

This beautiful picture book shines a light on Beatrix Potter's lesser-known history and her desire to do something for the greater good.
