Maths Worksheets is a book of A4 photocopy masters containing 41 pages of maths exercises arranged in two sections. The first section contains worksheets on specific maths topics such as place value; time & clocks; multiplication; fractions; decimals; rounding numbers; estimation; using rulers, scales & dials; charts & graphs; maps. In the second section, the worksheets cover the use of maths in everyday situations, including shopping in metric; paying the newsagent; special offers; maths & babies; measuring for DIY; reading timetables; TV ratings; football league tables; calculating VAT.
Maths Worksheets covers many of the elements specified in Entry Level and Level 1 of the Adult Numeracy Core Curriculum and equivalent stages in the National Curriculum (Maths). Some sheets span more than one level and, for Entry Level work in particular, it may be necessary to select some questions and omit others on a given sheet. Detailed answers are provided where needed and an index gives guidance as to which sheets include practice in particular skills.
The 3rd edition has been updated to reflect current prices, statistics and weights and measures. Two of the worksheets (pp.37 & 40) have been replaced with new ones and most sheets contain amendments of some sort. For this reason, copies from the 3rd edition should not be used alongside copies from the 1st or 2nd editions.
