NEW! Mathology Grades 3-6 Practice Workbooks
Pearson Canada had an opportunity to connect with math leaders and educators across Canada to research about the importance of workbook. From the research, we learned that:
- print resource is important
- teachers were spending a lot of time to look for the right worksheets, printing, photocopying
- and teachers who use worksheets for practice use them often.
Based on the research, we created Mathology Practice Workbook, available in Teacher Edition and Student Edition per Grade 3-6. The Workbook:
- A student and teacher consumable practice booklet per grade
- Curriculum-based, unit-based, all strands
- Supports independent, purposeful practice where students can continue to develop their understanding and sharpen their math skills
- Complements Mathology.ca lessons & practice and can support any resource
- Variety of activities including multiple choice, fill in the blanks, games, puzzles, and problem-solving
- 1 booklet per student
