Carefully aligned to the stages of development in numeracy, this series has been designed to supplement the classroom programme with activities to follow up each key concept after it has been introduced. The activities reinforce learning while keeping the work varied and stimulating. Word problems show the concept in a real-life context and students are encourages to write their own problem and apply their understanding. Rubrics, curriculum links and clear learning intentions guide teachers in their planning and students in their learning.
