  • DESCRIPTION

    Endorsed for the OCR J560 GCSE Mathematics Foundation tier specification for first teaching from 2015, this Student Book provides full coverage of the new GCSE Mathematics qualification. With a strong focus on developing problem-solving skills, reasoning and fluency, it helps students understand concepts, apply techniques, solve problems, reason, interpret and communicate mathematically. Written by experienced teachers, it also includes a solid breadth and depth of quality questions set in a variety of contexts. GCSE Mathematics Online - an enhanced digital resource incorporating progression tracking - is also available, as well as Problem-solving Books, Homework Books and a free Teacher's Resource.

  • Contents
  • FEATURES
    • Includes exercises with a variety of questions, including practice, investigatory, reasoning and problem-solving questions which gradually increase in difficulty, and link together sections and topics to develop fluency of mathematics, problem solving and reasoning skills.

    • Exam-style questions to prepare students for assessment at the end of the two year linear course.

    • Real life relevancy - chapters will begin with how the content of the chapter relates to work, linking to an example image and quote.

    • ‘Before you start’ questions at the beginning of every chapter on each concept assess whether students can recall the necessary knowledge and skills required.

    • Calculator tips included.

    • A ‘Work it out’ feature will help draw out misconceptions. Featuring a set question or a problem with three possible solutions and one correct answer, containing common errors to act as teaching points.

    • Every chapter includes a summary of the subject content covered in the chapter and a checklist against which students can check their knowledge and understanding in order to identify any gaps.

    • End of chapter review questions act as summative assessment and revision.

    • Split across 2 tiers – Foundation and Higher.
