WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW IN

MATHEMATICS

BEFORE STARTING HIGH SCHOOL,

was written by a High School Maths Teacher as a  labour of love.

He was driven out of compassion for the Grade 8 learners who arrive in his class at the beginning of every new year, not knowing the foundational basics necessary for them to be able to succeed at Mathematics in high school.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW IN MATHEMATICS BEFORE STARTING HIGH SCHOOL includes the basics necessary for your child to have the knowledge he/she is expected to have, on the first day of Maths at high school and beyond.

You can imagine what an advantage this gives your child.

Each concept is covered with step-by-step explanations and illustrated with gorgeous pictures that will appeal to your child’s sense of fun.

The book weighs about 250 grams and has been bound with a wire ring binder, this makes it easier to carry around and

easy to use as a reference book that your child can refer to again and again.
