Full Description
This comprehensive workbook takes students on a carefully sequenced journey through addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division using the Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract (CPA) mastery approach. Each of the 30 objectives builds on the last, moving students from visual, hands-on representations through to confident abstract calculation. Rather than rushing to written procedures, every unit develops genuine understanding so that when students do use formal methods, they can explain their thinking at every step.
This 618-page workbook is a sequenced, pedagogically coherent programme covering all four calculation operations across 30 carefully structured objectives. Rather than a collection of disconnected activities, every unit builds on the last, giving you a complete calculation programme in a single resource. Ten friendly cartoon robot guides appear on every worked example, modelling each task and keeping the tone curious and encouraging.
• Addition builds from understanding hundreds through to adding two 3-digit numbers with exchange.
• Subtraction develops from even hundreds through the most demanding exchange and bridging cases.
• Multiplication moves from equal grouping and commutativity through to the expanded method for 2-digit by 1-digit calculations.
• Division takes students from applying times-table knowledge through to dividing 2-digit numbers with remainders.
Visual supports are woven throughout every unit: base ten blocks, number lines, place value grids, arrays, bar models, cherry diagrams, arrow cards, abacuses, number bonds, and fact family triangles all appear at the points where they best support understanding. Everything is ready to print and use immediately; no cutting, laminating, or preparation of any kind is required.
