The Year 3 Targeting Mental Maths book has been written to complement the Year 3 NSW Targeting Maths Australian Curriculum Edition Student Book. The two-page weekly units run parallel to the contents in the student book. Units are divided into four terms of work and each term ends with a Revision Unit. There are 35 units in total.
A unit consists of two facing pages. The left-hand page has three groups of quick mental exercises that constantly practise the necessary maths facts. The right-hand page always starts with an explanation and practice of a mental strategy. This is followed by exercises that include work on space, measurement, position, number, data, chance etc. The page concludes with a Problem of the week.
Answer pages are in the centre of the book so that the complete section can be easily pulled out and kept separate if the teacher so wishes.
Targeting Mental Maths fulfils the need for easily accessible mental warm-ups, constant practice of maths facts, a useful homework book and further revision of a concept being taught.
