Download or read book Mental Maths in Minutes written by Judy Richardson and published by Andrew Brodie Publications. This book was released on 2004 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The three photocopiable titles in the Mental Maths in Minutes series provide a systematic approach to teaching and learning number facts. Each Mental Maths sheet is split into four columns - teachers photocopy the sheet, then slice the copies to provide strips of questions to give to the children. The children are timed for one minute and achieve a score according to the number of questions that they get correct. Specific skills such as addition, subtraction, doubling, halving, multiplying and dividing are addressed repeatedly, but each time at a higher level of understanding and children are encouraged to improve upon their own scores.
