Teacher Reviews
- Melissa FMelissa F"This book series has really helped boost my confidence and the content is set out clearly. I've actually enjoyed teaching it. This is an excellent series with fantastic resources. As a first-time maths teacher, I have found this series essential in my training. It has been a lifesaver."
- Sarah Wall 10 Oct 2024Sarah Wall 10 Oct 2024"I just wanted to say, as an intermediate teacher and an Across School Lead in maths, I was disappointed your books were not included in the (MOE) options. We are a multi-approach school and will not be relying on any one resource, funded or not. We have used your books for years and I promote these across our Kāhui ako and will continue to do so. Of all the resources we use, yours offer everything that covers a balanced, rich programme. The conceptual reasoning is there, and I love how the level of challenge increases as students work through the tasks. We supply enough blue books (Connecting All Strands) so our students have one between 2, and a handful of yellow books for each class. As an experienced and confident maths teacher, if we only had one resource, yours would be my pick. "
