Developmental Mathematics is a unique and trusted series for Years 7 – 10 students with strong numeracy and literacy needs. Revised for the new Australian Curriculum as well as the New South Wales syllabus Stages 4 and 5.1. Each chapter is presented clearly on a double-page spread. The left page contains explanations, worked examples, and if appropriate a word bank of mathematical terminology and a fact box. The right page contains an exercise set, including multiple-choice questions, scaffolded solutions and realistic applications of mathematics. Each chapter concludes with a language activity that reinforces mathematical terminology. Chapter practice tests are included containing non-calculator questions on general topics and topic questions grouped by chapter subheading.
