Maths Games 9-10 is a book of games designed to reinforce and consolidate a variety of mathematical concepts with an emphasis on language. Students need to develop their mathematical vocabulary so that they can talk about, improve and relate their mathematical ideas. If students do not have this vocabulary to talk about and understand mathematical operations, they may not progress.
According to Pollock and Waller (1994),’….extra lessons which consist of more of the same, can aggravate student’s feelings of failure and convince them that they will never be able to do maths’. Hence, playing games is an ideal way to reinforce concepts and gain consolidation. Maths Games 9-10 will motivate students to explore and learn mathematics in the safe and familiar environment of game playing.
