Building Strong Mathematicians Book 5 - Activities cards to reinforce and extend number and algebra learning

Book 5 is an activity-based guide that assists teachers in teaching core mathematical concepts. It includes explanations that enable it to be used as a stand-alone or in conjunction with Book 2. Activities are graded, allowing teachers to deliver lessons tailored to their students' abilities. Key concepts include inverse operations with the four processes, comparing and ordering numbers, and using the four processes with fractions and decimals.

The major units cover: - using inverse operations with the four processes - comparing and ordering positive and negative numbers - ordering fractions and decimal numbers - rounding whole numbers and decimal numbers - using the four processes with fractions - using the four processes with decimals numbers - finding the percentage of a whole number
