The 21st Century Mathematics series includes more advanced math concepts with emphasis on problem solving. Innovative and up-to-date, it lays the foundation that develops skilled mathematicians as it:

• emphasizes mastery of basic operations;
• offers introductory concepts and activities in computer education and exercises on the wise use of calculators; and
• highlights a section titled Think and Try, which enhances pupils’ logical-and-critical-thinking skills through
  challenging but amusing activities and problems.

The Worktext showcases the following features:

• Focus on skills development: Offers goal-oriented lessons and exercises that intensively develop and reinforce mastery of a particular skill
• Repetitive practice for efficient learning and understanding: Provides immediate and rigorous practice with preliminary and continuous drills, enabling you to render maximum supervision and check pupils’ errors before they begin to work independently
• Emphasis on problem solving: Enables pupils to apply basic math concepts in solving problems and to extend the use of these concepts in a variety of situations

The Teachers Guide supplies reinforcement and enrichment activities and specifies the length of time needed to complete a particular lesson. Further discussion of some math concepts plus other interesting activities are also provided to help you teach the lessons more effectively.
