Building Strong Mathematicians Book 5

Activities cards to reinforce and extend number and algebra learning

Book 5 in this series is activity-card based and designed to reinforce and extend learning of number and algebra strategies from Building Strong Mathematicians: Book 2. This title also includes enough concept explanation for teachers to use it as a stand-alone resource

The activities in Book 5 are graded as:
- (I) introduction to the concept
- (C) consolidating the concept
- (E) extending the concept.

This gives teachers the opportunity to teach the same core concepts and provide students with independent activities suited to their level of learning.
