This series is endorsed by Cambridge International Examinations and is part of Cambridge Maths. This teacher's resource for stage 1 will fully support teachers to get the best from their learners and effectively use the learner's book and games book. Detailed lesson plans based on the course objectives are offered, along with additional activity ideas. Teachers will be guided to formatively assess their learners' understanding. They will have the confidence to engage the class in mathematical discussion and encourage learners to justify answers and make connections between ideas. Answers to the learner's book and all photocopiable sheets required are provided. All book content, plus more, is included on the CD for convenience.
This series is endorsed by Cambridge International Examinations and is part of Cambridge Maths. Learners will reinforce their mathematical understanding in an enjoyable way with the fun games in this stage 4 games book resource for teachers. Instructions for teachers or parents are provided and direct links to both the course objectives and activities in the teacher's guide are made, making this the perfect resource for additional class activity or homework. All photocopiable resources needed to play the games are included in the book and on the CD, so learners can start playing straight away. Projectable instructions for the learners are also included on the CD.
Based on the Primary Mathematics series from Singapore. Designed to equip students with a strong foundation in mathematics and critical thinking skills, the program offers an integrated solution to different learning needs in the classroom.
"Primary Mathematics is a series of textbooks produced by the Ministry of Education for the 2021 Primary Mathematics Syllabus. It reflects the syllabus emphases on metacognition and mathematical processes such as reasoning, communication and making connections, crucial to the development of 21st Century Competencies. The textbook is specially designed to support effective teaching and learning, and for use with other resources, including interactive elements, to provide pupils with a productive and engaging learning experience." -- Preface.
Arranged by the content strands - Number and Algebra, Measurement and Geometry, Statistics and Probability - giving teachers independence and flexibility in constructing a week-by-week maths program. Practical and hands-on activities encourage students to develop their own strategies as confident learners. Graded activities provide effective scaffolding for students and allow teachers to cater for mixed ability classes. Discussion icons are indicated throughout the books to highlight areas where class or small group discussion can take place. Revision boxes contain information to help students recall past learning, or offer hints and further explanation of difficult concepts. Full-colour photos and illustrations link learning activities to every day contexts to help make maths meaningful. Activities are related to Cambridge Maths-in-a-Box, which enriches the program with contextual activities and saves teachers time with planning.
This book explores what reasoning is and what it is not. It includes background theory and a rationale for primary teachers alongside examples of how reasoning in primary mathematics and science classes can develop.
At last, a unique book that explores and exploits the links between primary mathematics and science so that you can promote learning in both of these important STEM subjects! Rich in engaging ideas and activities for the classroom this book helps you plan and teach well-structured lessons in a more integrated way. The book outlines key curriculum topics in both subjects and considers why it is important and beneficial to make connections between the two. As well as covering key subject knowledge (what you need to know) and teaching activities (what you need to do), the book explores learners’ mathematical and scientific needs, and defines the characteristics of effective teaching and learning, bringing it all together with ideas which you can use straightway in your classroom. Key features: • promotes an informed approach to integrating primary mathematics and science teaching • helps address the time constraints of delivering the primary national curriculum • presents engaging ideas which can be directly transferred to the classroom • provides a real-life context to mathematics and science activities to inspire student learning • helps you combine two closely related and sometimes tricky subject areas – why teach one subject when you can teach two at the same time! "Accessible, readable and engaging with a range of innovative teaching ideas, this is an invaluable book for all trainee and qualified primary teachers and other educational professionals with links to primary mathematics and science. A great 'go to' book for teachers and trainee teachers alike. Chapters are constructed with easy to read objectives and clear summaries. Many practical ideas, incorporating current research, as well as information on mathematicians and scientists, which is great for boosting children’s aspirations and also helping with teachers’ confidence on the subjects. A lovely, easy to access book, whether it is to use for reference, to dip in and out of or just to use alongside planning materials."
