Ready To Advance
Don’t just give this book to your child and expect them to learn by themselves. Any
activity is fun when done with others or when there is reinforcement and
encouragement. Praise and attention to what they are doing will help towards
getting them to sit down to learn next time.
This blue Mighty Maths series, Advancing Mathematician, reinforces the work
covered in the previous Mighty Maths series (Beginning Mathematician and
Developing Mathematician). The work is progressively more challenging and new
concepts are introduced in each book at various points. To help reinforce
mathematical skills as well as to maintain motivation, the same type of question is
asked in different ways and contexts.
C Get your child into a routine for study. This is best done after they have
come home from school and had a snack.
C Sit down and explain each of the concepts. To achieve this, parents may
have to read ahead to know what will be covered.
C Reinforce concepts in the book by giving extra examples and testing your
child on his or her times tables.
C Practise correct writing and spelling of number words. Give extra examples.
Don’t just rely on this book. A dozen questions on a piece of paper at a later
date will reinforce the work covered and will help consolidate the concepts
involved. It all adds to giving your child an advantage at school.
If your child does not understand or makes mistakes then don’t worry! Some new
concepts might be confusing at first. As work in this series progresses they will
have many opportunities to learn that same concept in similar and different
contexts. Therefore, go over the pages, praise what has been done right and talk
about what has gone wrong. Rub out their answers and let them try that page
again. The work in this series of books will become increasingly more challenging.
With some children the learning process will take time, however practice and
repetition will lead to increased confidence in mathematics.
We hope that you and your child have fun with Mighty Maths. At Mahobe, we
certainly had fun putting it all together for you.
