Included in the textbooks are Investigation, Class Discussion, Thinking Time, Journal Writing, Performance Task and Problems in Real-World Contexts to support the teaching and learning of Mathematics. Every chapter begins with a chapter opener which motivates. students in learning the topic. Interesting stories about Mathematicians, real-life examples and applications are used to arouse students’ interest and curiosity so that they can appreciate the beauty of Mathematics in their surroundings. The use of ICT helps students to visualise and manipulate mathematical objects more easily, thus making the learning of Mathematics more interactive. Ready-to-use interactive ICT templates are available at http:/Awww.shinglee.com.sg/ StudentResources/ CHAPTER OPENER Each chapter begins with a chapter opener to arouse students’ interest and curiosity in learning the topic. LEARNING OBJECTIVES Leaming objectives help students to be more aware of what they are about to study so that they can monitor thelr ‘own progress. RECAP. Relevant prerequisites will be revisited atthe beginning ofthe chapter or at appropriate junctures so that students can build upon their prior knowledge, thus creating meaningful inks to their existing schema. WORKED EXAMPLE This shows students how to apply what they have learnt to solve related problems and how to prosent their working Clearly. suitable heading Is included in brackets to distinguish between the different Worked Examples. PRACTISE NOW ‘At the end of each Worked Example, a similar question will be provided for immediate practice. Where appropriate, this includes further questions of progressive difficulty. SIMILAR QUESTIONS: Ast of similar questions in the Exercise is given here to help teachers choose questions that their students can do (on their own, EXERCISE ‘The questions are classifiad into three levels of cificulty - Basie, Intermediate anc Advanced, SUMMARY ‘At the end of each chapter, a succinct summary of the key concepts is provided to help students consolidate what they have learnt. REVIEW EXERCISE This is included at the ond of each chaptor forthe consolidation of learning of concopts. CHALLENGE YOURSELF Optional problems are included at the end of each chapter to challenge and stretch high-ability students to thele fullest potential. REVISION EXERCISE ‘This is included after avery few chapters to help students assess ther learning Learning experiences have been infused into Investigation, Class Discussion, Thinking Time, Journal Writing and Performance Task. Investigation Activities are included to guide students to investigate and discover important mathematical concepts so that they can construct their own knowledge meaningfully. Discussion Questions are provided for students to discuss imclass, with the teacher acting as the facitatr. ‘The questions wil assist students to leam now knowedge, think mathematicaly, and enhance ‘ther reasoning and oral communication skis ‘Thinking Time Journal Writing Key questions are also included at ‘Opportunities are provided for students to appropriate junctures to check if reflect on their learning and to communicate students have grasped various concepts YA mathematically. it can also be used as a and to create opportunities for them to formative assessment to provide feedback to further develop their thinking. students to improve on their leering = Performance Task Mini projects are designed to develop research and presentation skis in the students. ‘This contains important This guides students This includes information information that students ‘on how to approach a that may be of interest should know, problem. to students.
