BGE S1–S3 Mathematics & Numeracy: Third Level by Helen Kelly
Boost attainment, engagement and confidence with this progressive approach to Third Level Maths. Pupils are guided through mathematical concepts with worked examples, plenty of practice and opportunities to check that skills are secure before moving on.This book covers all of the BGE Benchmarks for Mathematics and Numeracy at Third LevelIt is colourful and inviting, striking a good balance between text and diagrams. Each chapter includes a short introduction, a selection of worked examples and plenty of questions and fun activities to be tackled by the learner. A check-up exercise concludes the chapter and answers are available at the back of the book.
One of the key strengths of this book is the way in which methods and worked examples are communicated. A great deal of thought has clearly gone into choosing appropriate examples and clear, concise explanations. It is obvious that the authors are familiar with the needs of pupils in the BGE phase. Consequently, this book would be equally suited for use both in a classroom environment and, possibly more important now than ever, as a tool for home learning.
Each exercise strikes a careful balance between an appropriate amount of core practice and more challenging questions to extend the more able student. For instance, the section on 'evaluating expressions' builds up learners' skills in the basics of substitution before challenging them with a selection of code breaking activities, matching equivalent expressions and even a substitution crossword.
Also available to purchase for a one-off fee of £85 plus VAT is the downloadable Planning and Assessment Pack, containing teaching notes, homework exercises and assessments for each chapter as well as block tests and a whole course assessment.
This book is an outstanding resource for all pupils studying Third Level Mathematics and I would not hesitate to recommend it to pupil, parent or teacher. I am eagerly anticipating the opportunity to utilise this resource with my own classes.
