Love it or hate it, maths is an essential subject to know. Now you can master it with this colorful practice ebook.
Do you feel a bit left behind in maths class? Or are you a maths genius and want to practice more at home? DK's How to be Good at Maths course book for children aged 7-12 now has two accompanying workbooks: Workbook 1 covers ages 7-9 and Workbook 2 covers ages 9-12.
These workbooks will help to cement everything you need to know about maths through practice questions and practical exercises. Easy-to-follow instructions allow you to try out what you've studied, helping you understand what you've learned in school or giving extra revision practice before that important test.
Workbook 2 is aimed at children aged 9-12 (Upper Key Stage 2 in the UK, Grades 4, 5, and 6 in the US), and covers all the key areas of the school curriculum for this level, including working with fractions and decimal numbers, percentages, long multiplication and division, measurement, geometry, coordinates, statistics, probability, and basic algebra. And there are answers at the back to check that you're on the right path.
This workbook accompanies DK's How to be Good at Maths coursebook, but can also be used on its own to reinforce classroom teaching.
