内容説明

In order for a child to succeed in the area of mathematics, they must understand the basics upon which the more complex skills are based. This guide for parents allows each child to learn at their own rate and to their own abilities and comprehension, breaking down each topic into small steps. The child should become steadily more confident as they pick up the basic skills of adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing. This book shows parents how to teach their child the basics of mathematics and covers all aspects of the National Curriculum up to the age of 11, including more advanced topics such as decimals and long multiplication. It is compatible with Key Stage 1 and 2 and should provide a firm foundation for Key Stage 3.
