If you have answered ‘yes’ to any of these questions, then SUPER SLEUTH: Maths Problem-Solving Activities is the ideal tool for your school’s numeracy needs. Problem-solving is a key element of maths teaching and learning, yet Irish statistics show that it is an area in which pupils continually underperform. As a principal, you need a concrete plan to tackle this complex area for both your teachers and pupils. Core maths programmes cover operational/mental maths very well. Gill Education’s Super Sleuth is the only dedicated, strategybased maths problem-solving series in Ireland and are the only books you need to complement your core programme. Covering all aspects of problem-solving, it gives easy and effective strategies that once taught, enable pupils to become independent and competent problem-solvers – so don’t miss out!
