Description of  Comprehensive Mathematics Practice: Book 1

0198336632 pdf This series of six books is intended for the majority of pupils in the first years of secondary schooling. It provides a firm foundation in the mathematics needed at this level from which the pupils can proceed with confidence on a course to C.S.E. or G .C.E. '0' Level. The books can be used either as a complete course or as a supplement to existing textbooks. The material is arranged in sequential order. Each section includes brief teaching notes and worked examples followed by ample practice which is carefully graded. This ensures that most children gain the satisfaction of success as well as the experience of sufficient practice. Wherever possible , emphasis is laid on practical or topical aspects of the subject. The numerical answers to the questions in all six books are provided in one separate book. This arrangement of material in the books is intended to allow teachers to plan their own order of treatment to suit the aptitude and ability of a wide range of pupils : no specific scheme of work is presupposed. The series is designed to provide a relevant and lively course which should encourage the 'middle-of-the-road' pupils to gain confidence in their abilities and to master the fundamental processes so necessary for future mathematical success.
