HOW CAN YOU HELP YOUR CHILD IN MATHEMATICS? Mastering mathematics is essential for future opportunities in school and careers. Your children need to reach a certain level of competency in mathematics to be able to progress in many advanced high-school courses, and then to have a wider variety of career choices. Doing mathematics homework reinforces all the skills being learnt in class. The more time children spend practising their skills, the sooner they will develop confidence in their abilities. However don’t just give this book to your children and expect them to learn by themselves. Any activity is fun when done with others or when there is reinforcement and encouragement. Praise and attention to what they are doing will help towards getting them to sit down to learn next time. This green Mighty Maths series, Maturing Mathematician, reinforces and continues on with the work covered in the previous Mighty Maths series (Beginning Mathematician, Developing Mathematician and Advancing Mathematician). The work is progressively more challenging and new concepts are introduced in each book at various points. To help reinforce mathematical skills as well as to maintain motivation, the same type of question is asked in different ways and contexts. This specific book covers number sequences, numbers greater than 100, arithmetic strategies, adding and subtracting with carrying, measurement and fractions. For best results: C
Make sure your children understand the different concepts. Mathematics is not just a meaningless mental exercise of memorizing rules and doing rote drills. Making mathematics part of their daily lives will make it more meaningful. For example, ask them to space new plants a certain distance apart in the garden, double a recipe or pay bills in stores.
C
Help them to master the basic facts and learn the vocabulary of mathematics. By now, your children should be competent in the multiplication tables, and simple arithmetic. Having these basic skills and being able to understand the vocabulary means that they can move up to a higher level of learning. If they have not mastered these, use flash cards and drills to help them learn.
C
Encourage your children to write neatly. Many errors in solving mathematics problems can be traced back to sloppy number writing.
C
Provide help immediately when needed. Mathematics is a subject in which everything builds upon what has been previously learned. For example, a failure to understand fractions and decimals will lead to problems with percentages.
We hope that you and your children have fun with Mighty Maths. At Mahobe, we certainly had fun putting it all together for you.

Here is an interesting conundrum called The $30 Meal Three mathematicians share a meal at a restaurant and split the bill. The waiter charges them $30, and they pay $10 each. However, the waiter comes back afterwards and says he has overcharged them and the bill should have only been $25. Of the $5 they are owed, they agree to take $1 each and tip the waiter the remaining $2 to thank him for his honesty. They have now each paid $9 for the meal. However: They originally paid $30. They each end up paying $9. Three nines are $27, plus the $2 which the waiter received is $29. Where did the extra dollar go? $10-$1=$9 $30
$10-$1=$9 $10-$1=$9 ???
$27 +$2 $29
