Whether they are rounding decimal numbers or calculating time intervals on a train timetable, Cambridge Primary Mathematics helps your learners develop their mathematical thinking skills. They’ll be fully supported with worked examples and plenty of practice exercises, while projects throughout the book provide opportunities for deeper investigation of mathematical concepts – including predicting patterns using matchsticks. With key word boxes, clear diagrams and supporting illustrations, the course makes maths accessible for second language learners.
