This book is one of a series that use a "search n shade" technique to create a fun way to learn and reinforce mathematical concepts. Students use a shading code to shade a grid on which answers to exercises are found. If the exercise answers are correct, a symmetrical design develops. Arithmetic by Design contains 48 one-page activities covering whole numbers, decimals, fractions, and percentages.
This UK edition translates currency values, problem language and detail into UK English whilst preserving exactly what the problems achieve in lovely - self-marking - patterns.
