What's the Problem Year 4

Within the average classroom there is a vast range of differing Mathematical abilities. This book has been written with a view to catering for those individual needs of children in the important sphere of problem solving. Like the series, Progress in Mental Arithmetic each unit has been written in levels making it ideal for group work. The problems presented in Level 1 are relatively uncomplicated whilst those in Level 3 are designed to extend the more talented mathematicians.

Wherever possible the problems contained in the units have been linked with the children's everyday experiences. Each unit is related to a particular concept allowing teacher and student to have a focus for that unit. However, the units do not have to be followed in the same order as they appear in the book.
