New Wave Mental Maths (Revised Edition) - Book C

New Wave Mental Maths is a best-selling series written to consolidate students’ mathematical understanding through comprehensive and structured daily mental maths practice. The series supports learning for curricula across Australia, and has been revised to meet the proficiencies of the Australian Curriculum Version 9.0, covering Understanding, Fluency, Problem-solving, and Reasoning.

This workbook is designed to ensure students: 

- practise mental calculation concepts and skills across all strands 
- consolidate their understanding of mathematical topics and vocabulary 
- reinforce their learning through self-guided revision of pre-taught concepts.

New to this edition is the ‘Weekly Focus’, which highlights a key topic covered throughout the week’s learning, offering an ideal opportunity for class discussion. Additionally, the updated ‘Problem-solving’ column provides students the space to apply critical thinking and inquiry skills to in-depth problems. 

The ‘Friday Review’ consolidates the week’s learning with colour-coded questions representing the curriculum strands: blue for Number, purple for Algebra, green for Measurement, orange for Space, red for Statistics, and black for Probability. Designed to be flexible, educators may choose to use the ‘Friday Review’ as a pre- or post-assessment, or to allow students to self-assess and monitor their own progress. 

The ‘Maths Facts’, located at the back of the workbook, support student learning through visual representation of mathematical concepts. 

The goal of this workbook is to encourage students to practise mental calculations every day, supporting their future in a world that is full of maths.
