Access to Mathematics: Sessions52 different topics on 2/3 sides worksheets under the headings:• Calculations• Numbers and the number system• Equations, formulae and
identities• Sequences, functions and graphs• Geometrical reasoning• Transformations and coordinates• Measures and construction• Probability• Statistics• Skills
Non-specialist teacher support is expected, so the materials are designed for student self teaching with some administrative support.
• Help sheets on English vocabulary• Pre-test and post-test
