When children can solve problems in their heads they feel more confid ent in their own abilities. The development of mental computation progre sses through a range of strategies that can be improved by regular pract ice. The six books (Year 1 to Year 6) in the Targeting Mental Ma ths series target the structured development of children's ment al maths strategies.
Each double-page weekly unit includes an exp lanation and practice of a specific mental strategy alongside sets of fo cused questions that reinforce important basic facts. The problem of the week is a motivating problem that gets children thinking and applying t heir mathematical skills.
This series is part of the Targeting Ma ths scheme of Student Books, Teaching Guides, Assessment Books and CD-RO Ms. The first maths scheme to make teaching and learning mathematics tru ly enjoyable for all!
