APC Maths Carnival Textbook for Class 5

The Maths Carnival series has been developed especially for the schools in India in order to help students achieve the learning outcomes of the latest national curriculum. Maths Carnival builds a strong foundation of the subject through the use of well-researched and sound pedagogical principles. Adopting the popular Concrete → Pictorial → Abstract approach widely used in the Singapore mathematics curriculum, pupils are introduced to new concepts through concrete manipulatives and engaging pictorials before they are led to see their abstract symbolic representations. This allows pupils to have a deeper understanding of key mathematical concepts, thus motivating them to learn. The Practice Assignments and Self Tests allow for continual evaluation of pupils’ understanding of concepts. These outcome-based exercises aim to test their understanding and application of mathematical concepts and related skills to solve real-life problems

The key features of the book are:

• Graduated content ensuring the logical progression of learning
• Clear presentation of key mathematical concepts with solved examples
• Plenty of practice exercises
• Hands-on moths activities to promote peer interaction and collaborative learning
• Ample skill-based questions to develop various skills for applying mathematics in daily life
• Real-life application of mathematical concepts
