In their first bestselling book Maths for Mums & Dads Rob Eastaway & Mike Askew helped you & your child make sense of the new methods & topics covered in primary school maths. But as your child embarks on secondary school two new issues arise. First in the build-up to GCSE school children begin to do maths that you probably have never encountered before
- or if you have you never really got it in the first place & have long since forgotten. Factorising? Finding the locus? Solving for x? Probability distributions? What do these even mean? More Maths for Mums & Dads gives you all the ammunition to help you to help your teenager get to grips with & feel more confident about
- & hopefully even enjoy
- GCSE maths. It covers in straightforward & easy-to-follow terms the maths your child will encounter in the build up to GCSE in many cases gives practical & fun examples of where the maths crops up in the real world. In addition the authors introduce the notion of estimation & coin a new term Zequals. Using the Zequals method will help develop your teenager's feel for numbers which in turn could transform their experience & enjoyment of everyday maths.
