Making Maths Add Up takes a revolutionary new approach to teaching maths. Starting from scratch, it breaks seemingly complex mathematical concepts down into core parts, and builds upon each foundation skill in an intuitive way.
This book equips kids with the skills and tools to explore and truly understand maths. While most books cover only a fraction of each topic, this book starts from the beginning and logically builds up each concept, strengthening students' confidence. This way any gaps in previous maths education that may have been holding students back will be found and addressed.
This book is suitable for a range of students, from young kids who want to be extended to intermediate aged children who have 'fallen behind'. No specific year level is put on the book so kids are not shamed by the expectations of artificial divisions created by curriculum designs.
Maggie's use of cute pictures and chatty, conversational language are in stark contrast to the usual dry intimidating maths textbook. She discusses serious maths concepts in a friendly way so everyone can enjoy discovering their secret math superpowers!
