Children love magic numbers. They love to solve them - and to mystify family and each other with them.
This book contains various "magic" matrices that can be solved by children in the primary school. Most focus upon addition, with variations for decimals, fractions and some multiplication matrices. They are aimed at Year 3 to Year 6 children. The intention is to make mathematics and addition a positive experience by showing children how to work with the matrices and how to construct their own. A teacher or parent can also create further matrices for the children at the appropriate...

While you learn about place values and the names of big numbers, try to imagine what those numbers can do. How long would it take to toast 100,000 marshmallows? What does a million dollars really look like? How many trillion miles away is the star nearest our own sun, and how do we know this?

First learn how to use simple addition to find the total number of dots, from zero to twelve, on each domino. Then see if you can find the dominoes with each total hidden in the pictures. With a simple but imaginative approach, Lynette Long has created a fun-filled counting book sure to appeal to even the most reluctant math students.

This book is intended to act both as an encouragement for children to learn their tables, and as a reward for having succedded in doing so. On every page there are diagrams made up of small numbered areas. If that number will divide by the number being studied, then the area has to be colored. When all the target areas of a particular puzzle are colored then the hidden picture is revealed. In this way children become more familiar with the number combinations, essential for skill at mental arithmetic. There are also other charts and "hundred squares" to color and the book is then rounded...
