    All real life mathematics is problem solving. And all those fascinated by puzzles are problem solvers at heart. But thinking mathematically is a skill we have to learn and one which it is easy to forget. Recreational mathematicians and students can practise problem solving in different ways. In this book solving puzzles is practised in a different way from most books they will have seen before: - Readers get no clues to what the puzzle is about - They may take hours or even days to work out what is being asked of them - Even after that, some problems may have no solution The result of this challenge is a really challenging book that will fascinate anyone interested in puzzles and recreational mathematicians in particular. This volume contains 36 puzzles ranging from quite easy to more difficult. The sister volume More Without Words: Mathematical Puzzles to Confound and Delight is also available - containing 36 more puzzles with more easy and fewer testing ones.

  • - Seventeen Ready-to-Use Activities to Make Learning More Effective and More Engaging

    A team race is a classic idea - it as simple as your team wins by answering all the questions correctly in the fastest time! The author used the idea in a lesson once and it worked so well it became something he did whenever that topic came up, as students enjoyed the activity so much, and the quality of learning and discussion taking place was very high.The first book in the series Mathematical Team Races for younger students has been widely used in secondary schools. This second book in the series contains activities based on Advanced Level core mathematics content.It can be incredibly difficult to find interesting resources as alternatives to a textbook, and hard to engage some post-16 students. Yet the author has found that post-16 students enjoy these activities just as much as younger ones and they are just as effective in developing their learning. They still enjoy the competitive nature of the activities and they promote rich discussions in overcoming misconceptions when tackling the problems in small groups.Paul Hambleton is an experienced teacher working in the UK.

  • - Practise Arithmetic While Having Fun!
    af Ian Ward
    143,95 kr.

    Children love magic numbers. They love to solve them and to mystify family and each other with them. This book contains various magic matrices that can be solved by children in the primary school. Most focus upon addition, with variations for decimals, fractions and some multiplication matrices. They are aimed at Grade 3 to Grade 6 children. The intention is to make mathematics and addition a positive experience by showing children how to work with the matrices and how to construct their own. A teacher or parent can also create further matrices for the children at the appropriate level.

    Kate and David Crennell produced a third edition for Tarquin some years ago.The plans and illustrations of all 59 of the stellations of the icosahedron were redrawn and there was a new introduction by Professor Coxeter. This edition has now been revised and updated and now includes colour plates for the first time.Many readers will wish to use the plates and descriptions included in The Fifty-nine Icosahedra to draw and make paper models of some or all of the stellations of the icosahedron and in so doing, gain a greater understanding of the stellation process. For a thorough understanding of the process of stellation and for splendid examples of beautiful polyhedra, this book will be a valuable addition to any mathematics library.As Richard Guy put it in the Preface of the Third Edition: "We mathematicians know how beautiful our subject is, but are often frustrated when we try to explain this to the man-in-the-street. But here at least is one place where we can simply say, 'Look!'"

  • - Solve the Puzzle Pictures While Learning Your Tables
    af Hilary McElderry
    71,95 kr.

    Following the pattern of her previous book, this second collection by Hilary McElderry offers new pictures to color and further opportunity and encouragement for children to learn and practise their multiplication tables. It is intended to act as an encouragement for children to learn their tables. On every page there are diagrams made up of small numbered areas. If that number will divide by the number being studied, then the area has to be colored or shaded. When all the target areas of a particular puzzle are colored, then the hidden picture is revealed. There are also other charts and hundred squares to color and the book is then rounded off with a target test to confirm the progress being made.
