Product description for Parents
Understanding Maths is a series of topic-based study books for children in Key Stage 2, providing rigorous practice of key subject areas. Each topic contains a concise summary of the information, making the series ideal for use as preparation for the Key Stage 2 tests. Each book is a stand-alone resource, so children can either work through them in order or focus on individual aspects of the subject. Together, the nine books support the whole of the Key Stage 2 maths curriculum, providing a solid foundation for success in maths.
Statistics meets the requirements for Key Stage 2 maths, and covers the following areas: bar charts, Venn diagrams, grouped data, averages, co-ordinates, 2-D and 3-D shapes, angles, length, mass, capacity, area and perimeter, timetables, distance charts, scatter graphs, pie charts, converting units, and misleading statistics. The book also describes different ways to represent data and explains how to interpret information presented in a range of graphs and charts.

an ‘Explanation’ to introduce each topic
activities to consolidate and revise knowledge and skills
thought-provoking facts to foster a love of learning
regular ‘Progress tests’ and a ‘Final test’ to track children’s development.
