Foundation Numeracy in Context
David Tout, Gary Motteram
Have your students become disengaged from learning mathematics? If so, this book was written for you! The authors describe an approach to teaching mathematics based on applications and context - where practical investigations and projects are principle vehicles for students learning.
The book provides an introduction to and reasoning for this approach, guidance for teachers in designing teaching programs, and practical illustrations which draw together mathematics from the areas of number, measurement, space, data and statistics, and algebra using sample contexts such as cars and driving, sport, and cooking and catering.
