Book Summary:
MathsWiz, a series of nine textbooks for KG to 8 is a course based on the National Curriculum Framework and the guidelines provided therein. The content of the series is student-centred and activity-based with emphasis on developing problem-solving skills, encouraging the child to think creatively and work independently. The methodology facilitates the teacher, the student and the parent to ensure full involvement of the child in the classroom and at home.
All the mathematical concepts are presented in a very simple and easy-to-understand form. The concepts are explained by taking examples from our daily life situations. The examples and problems also make use of modern tools, gadgets and technology commonly used. An abundant use of visual tools such as diagrams, illustrations, cartoons, tables and charts makes learning fun and helps in greater retention.
