Discovering Mathematics is adapted from the leading Singapore course to fully match the English Key Stage 3 National Curriculum. This groundbreaking series harnesses authentic mastery principles through a Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract (CPA) approach, and use of precise mathematical language. Students learn by discovery, an approach pioneered by this course. Written by an experienced UK/Singapore team, this engaging book provides progression and practice for Middle tier students in Year 8.
Topics are introduced through inclusive whole-class activities. Worked examples give clear steps of how to present solutions, with hints and discussion points to encourage paired, group and whole-class working. Practice exercises are differentiated into three levels, progressing from basic fluency to application to problem solving, with consolidation through end-of-chapter exercises. Short answers in the back of the book help students quickly check their understanding, with fully-worked solutions containing GCSE grades in the Teacher Guide. Exercises incorporate 'intelligent practice', with careful variation of the numbers to reinforce and deepen learning. Problem-solving skills are identified throughout, with two dedicated problem-solving sections to support skills development. Students are also encouraged to reflect upon and embed their learning through a Write in Your Journal in every chapter. This Student Book will help students discover the underlying principles of mathematics and set them on the road to mastery.
Kids will love this hilarious fairy tale adventure packed with clever twists, familiar characters and page-turning fun.
