HOW TO USE THIS BOOK Ready Steady Go Maths is a Mental Maths programme for 1st to 6th Class primary school pupils. The programme is unique in that it actually teaches pupils the strategies and skills required to calculate and to solve mathematical problems mentally, thereby enabling pupils to fully engage with the Primary School Mathematics Curriculum.

Ready Steady Go Maths gives pupils a variety of approaches and strategies to make mental calculations using a step by step approach, appropriate to each class level and helps consolidate their problems solving skills.

The Ready Steady Go Maths programme is laid out in an easy to follow structure. The programme contains 160 units for each class level. There are 5 weekly lessons (Monday – Friday) rolled out over a period of 32 weeks each school year.

The Ready Steady Go Maths programme may be used as a warm-up ahead of existing daily Maths lessons. It may also be used as a stand-alone programme to teach Mental Maths or as assigned nightly homework. Whatever way Ready Steady Go Maths is used, the programme is the ideal complement to the Primary School Mathematics Curriculum.

Self-assessment At the end of each page there is a self-assessment section which gives pupils the opportunity to reflect on their learning and which provides useful feedback to the teacher on how each pupil is progressing.

Mondays Monday lessons focus entirely on Target Board activities which are ideal for teaching the language of Mathematics in general and the language of Number and Problem Solving in particular, in a fun and stimulating way. Pupils are provided with opportunities to explore the relationship between numbers and to consolidate mathematical learning through a variety of easy to follow questions.

Tuesdays Tuesday lessons focus on the Counting Stick, Number Strips and the Hundred Square. Pupils are introduced to counting forwards and backwards and thereby exploring number patterns and the relationships between numbers.

HOW TO USE THIS BOOK

Wednesday Wednesday lessons focus on problem solving. Pupils are introduced to the characters of Danny and Sarah through a series of interesting Mathematical stories and word problems based on these stories. They also learn strategies for problem solving and get the opportunities to practise these strategies through different types of problem solving such as Practical Tasks, Puzzles and Word Problems. In the 4th, 5th and 6th Class books, pupils are given a number of real life problems and investigations to research and solve online using information technology.

Thursday Thursday lessons develop pupils’ mental maths skills by teaching the pupils a variety of strategies for making mental calculations. The pupils are then provided with opportunities to apply these skills and strategies with structured questions based on the skill being developed.

Fridays Friday lessons focus on developing pupils’ all round mental abilities through a series of simple but challenging questions which consolidates work already done through the Ready Steady Go Maths programme.

Worked Examples Pupils are provided with worked examples throughout the Ready Steady Go Maths programme to demonstrate the skills and strategies being developed and which enables pupils to work independently of the teacher Supplementary Materials Large Class Target Boards incorporating the Target Boards in the pupil books are available to teachers in order to conduct class lessons. These Class Target Boards also contain a series of new Target Boards and activities not available in the pupil books which are extremely valuable in consolidating learning and in differentiating for pupils according to ability.

There is also a supplementary Teacher Manual for each class level containing the answers to all questions in the respective class pupil books.
