WHY SINGAPORE MATH: The math curriculum in Singapore has been recognized worldwide for its excellence in producing students highly skilled in mathematics. Singapore Math curriculum aims to help students develop the necessary math concepts and process skills for everyday life and to provide students with the ability to formulate, apply, and solve problems.

COMPREHENSIVE: Allows learners to practice various types of math problems while developing their thinking and analytical skills.

HOMESCHOOL FRIENDLY: Perfect as a supplement to classroom work or as a homeschool resource, these workbooks will boost confidence in problem-solving and critical-thinking skills.

The purpose of the Home Instructor s Guide is to provide parents with sufficient material to fully teach the Primary Mathematics curriculum to a depth that may not be achieved by simply following the textbook alone. Part of the success of any math curriculum comes from guiding the student so that he or she can apply and extend the concepts to new situations and develop problem solving strategie. With sufficient understanding of the textbook, the parent/teacher will be more able to understand and deal with any misconceptions early on. The parent/teacher will also be more prepared to initiate or pursue discussions on various approaches to solving a problem and to use the textbook effectively as a teaching tool. The guide contains: notes to the instructor with some mathematical background for each section in the textbook objectives for each chapter teaching activities using manipulatives where appropriate reinforcement and enrichment activities answers and solutions to corresponding textbook pages and learning tasks for the lesson, to be discussed with the student answers to the corresponding workbook exercises and solutions to many of the problems mental math pages This guide can be used with Primary Mathematics Standards Edition textbooks and workbooks. It cannot be used with Primary Mathematics U.S. Edition books. Format: 181 pages, paperback Publisher: Singapore Math ISBN: 9781932906257

The Challenging Word Problems for Primary Mathematics series provides not only ample practice of graded exercises for students of mixed abilities but also offers better math students with challenging questions. This series is written to supplement and complement Singapore's Primary Mathematics textbooks, both U.S. and Standards editions, distributed by SingaporeMath.com Inc for use in the U.S.A. Adopting a topical approach in which mathematical concepts and skills are taught and reinforced, the Challenging Word Problems for Primary Mathematics series of six titles (1-6) serves to improve students' problem-solving skills and enhance their mathematical reasoning. Each book in the series features the following: Worked Examples for each topic show common methods of solution used in the Primary Mathematics textbook; Practice Questions allow students to apply and practice questions similar to the ones discussed in the Worked Examples and in the Primary Mathematics textbooks; Challenging Problems provide opportunities for more capable students to solve harder word problems and further develop their problem-solving skills; Miscellaneous Questions allow students to review and test their understanding of the concepts discussed in each topic and in the Primary Mathematics textbooks; Answers allow teachers or students to check their answers to all practice exercises and challenging problems; Selected solutions provide commonly used methods of solution to non-routine questions, while encouraging creative or intuitive ones as well. Challenging Word Problems for Primary Mathematics is ideal for both classroom and home use as supplementary material to Primary Mathematics U.S. or Standards editions textbooks.
