The "Heinemann Mathematics" series is a lively new resource, intended to make maths interesting and relevant for pupils. It has been designed to place maths in real-life contexts, help pupils become confident problem-solvers, help pupils use and apply maths skills, ensure continuity and progression for high and low attainers, offer detailed teacher support and match the new curricula in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. "Heinemann Mathematics 7", intended for Year 7, provides revision of selected topics for National Curriculum Level 3, revision and consolidation of Level 4 and main coverage of Level 5 material. "Heinemann Mathematics 7" is substantially based on "SPMG Stage 5" which was published for P7 (age 11-12) in Scotland. The full-colour "Core Textbooks" guide pupils through a carefully structured sequence of work in each mathematical topic. Not only is the progression carefully controlled, but every bit of maths is given a clear purpose. There are opportunities for problem solving throughout, but in addition specific sections are devoted to the systematic treatment of problem-solving. "Extended Contexts" bring different areas of maths together in a complete section of work based on a single theme and give pupils practice in using and applying what they have learned. These sections are intended to be fun for pupils and involve a wide variety of activities from imaginative writing and problem-solving to the drawing and interpretation of graphs.
