Publisher's Synopsis
Building on the success of the Foundation Phase Understanding Numeracy series, this popular series now meets Curriculum 2005 requirements, and offers complete Mathematical Literacy, Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences learning programmes for the Intermediate and Senior phases. The material empowers learners and teachers in the South African context, where we have a shortage of specialist maths educators. There are friendly characters in the learner's books to support learners in constructing their own understanding and skills as well as to present different approaches, raise questions and encourage discussion. In this way learners are encouraged to develop and explain their own problem-solving strategies. Activities and investigations promote discovery and exploration of new concepts, while exercises consolidate understanding and practise skills.
