(Age: 6-8) Recommended. Themes: Mathematics, Arithmetic, Counting.
Dorling Kindersley have again produced a beautiful and
well-presented book with an explanation of very simple mathematical
concepts. The clarity of information and the presentation make this
a suitable book for young students up to Year 2 at school or could
be used to support students who are a little older if they have
missed the 'basics' or are young ESL students. The topics covered
begin with counting, then number operations, and also includes,
time, measurement and representation of data. Everything is defined
using a 'concrete' illustration and is exceptionally clear with one
to two sentence descriptions.
This would make a good library addition or a great book to have
within a classroom.
