Math Quest For Class VIII

The Maths Quest series comprises a set of 10 maths textbooks from pre-primer to class 8. The curriculum has been designed in such a way that at each level, students use their previous knowledge of mathematics as the basis of their new-found knowledge.

The approach is analytical, which is an ideal platform for the development of problem-solving and critical reasoning abilities and at the same time provides an avenue for the development of analytical and logical thinking within students. The curriculum and its presentation ensure that learning be shifted away from rote method to learning by doing.

The applications that mathematics has in the real world have been emphasised. Relating all concepts learned in the classroom with the real world applications will contribute to the holistic development of students.

The books build upon students’ natural tendency to explore, play and discuss newly discovered ideas that help them master concepts. They create an ambience of joyful learning wherein students imbibe the nuances of the subject without getting intimidated by it.
