6 LEVELS up to A2

Let’s Start! Maths

Let’s Start! Maths is a robust series, which uses effective
learning and teaching methodologies in order to smoothly ease
primary learners into the exciting world of maths. Aimed at the
development of problem-solving skills in young learners, the
series introduces a variety of word problems to challenge them.
The main goal of the series is the improvement of students’
deductive skills in order to help them achieve mathematical
proficiency.

The six-level curriculum of Let’s Start! Maths is based mainly
on the Singapore Maths method and follows international
standards. The series adopts the model drawing approach
which helps students develop a wide range of problem-solving
strategies. Let’s Start! Maths encourages students’ creative
and critical thinking and enables them to develop basic
mathematical skills such as analysing, reasoning and justifying,
making good use of the three-step transition ‘concrete–
pictorial–abstract’ which is crucial to the Singapore Maths
method.
