MYP Mathematics 4 & 5 Standard

Comprehensive from example point of view. Interesting investigation and explorations are discussed. A perfect book for inquiry-based learning since each chapter is designed in such way that teachers get excellent ideas for inquiry (questions at the beginning of the chapter). It is a rare treat to see the book instil deep pedagogical base for developing students' concepts. A good book for establishing foundation for IB DP. Key feature of the book is 'Reflect anddiscuss' component. This component helps students to involve with thoughts that they have before, during, and after a particular lesson or lessons. It is challenging for both students and teachers. Book presents examples with beautiful and colourful images. Brief but apt explanation with excellentillustrations. In terms of suggestion, rigorously designed exercises for mediocre students.
