Real Life Maths : Exploring Mathematical Concepts in Practical Everyday Ways - Bk. 2

This series is designed to present students with 'real life' contexts that require an understanding of a range of mathematical processes.

All activities are designed to engage students in meaningful work rather than just being presented as a set of sums and number problems.

Sections contain challenge and extension activities that build on from the main problem.

The problems are designed to consolidate comprehension skills as well as mathematical processes and problem solving strategies.

This title is ideal for reluctant maths students. Contexts of this title include: maths in the news; maths in advertising; planning a holiday; and, using a mobile phone.
