Levelled and sub-levelled questions provide clear differentiation and progression.

 Bright and innovative design that enhances the pupil experience

 Extended activities give pupils plenty of opportunities for problem solving and peer discussion

 ‘Why learn this?’ sections relate maths to the real world.

Stimulating, fun and exciting activities provide a memorable learning experience.

Supporting transition from primary to secondary in maths

Numbers 1-2, 2-3 and 3-4 in the Level Up Maths: Access workbooks refer to National Curriculum levels. National Curriculum levels are no longer used in schools but were widely used when the Level Up titles were originally published in 2008. There are no references to levels within the workbook pages.

Why is cross-curricular work so valuable in the mathematics classroom?Why can pupils sometimes draw graphs in mathematics but not in science?What might mathematics teachers learn from the performing arts?Cross-curricular approaches have much to offer the modern mathematics classroom. They can help teachers to present mathematics as a growing, relevant discipline that is central to much of modern life, and help learners to make sense of what they are doing and why. New contexts, new technology and new qualifications all make this an exciting time to be a cross-curricular teacher of mathematics.

But cross-curricular approaches are not always straightforward. Skills do not always transfer easily from one subject area to the other, and a number of important decisions have to be made. How should this type of work be planned, or assessed? How might it fit into the wider curriculum? Are all cross-curricular activities equally useful for learners? Does mathematics have something to share with all of the other curriculum areas?This book tackles these issues head on, combining educational theory and contemporary research with practical ideas and suggestions. From the mathematics of molecular geometry, wind turbines and impact craters to mathematical haikus, Babylonian clay tablets and juggling, each chapter is packed with examples for use in the secondary classroom.Key features include:Discussion of key issues and debatesCase studies to show you how others have used cross-curricular approachesA wide range of examples and practical activities to help you develop your own practiceExample approaches for planning and assessmentPart of the Cross-Curricular Teaching and Learning in the Secondary School series, this book is essential reading for all students on Initial Teacher Training courses and practising teachers looking to holistically introduce cross-curricular themes and practices into their mathematics teaching.

The Edexcel Maths in Context Project Book is written and endorsed for use with the Edexcel Mathematics in Context (Core maths) specification. It contains real-world mathematical problems developed for each area of the qualification. The content is matched to the context-led Scheme of Work, that helps students to see the real-life connections across and within each area of maths.
