Building Confidence in Maths Problem Solving Vol 2
APSMO originally developed the Maths Games program in 2015. The program’s aim is to provide interesting and challenging problem-solving opportunities for a wider range of students in a non-competitive environment.
Building Confidence in Maths Problem Solving Volume 2, contains more problems and solutions drawn from our Maths Games program with an even wider range of difficulty levels. The solution strategies included are designed to build on the skill sets developed in Volume 1 and help to reinforce and consolidate student learning.
Once again, the book is sequenced by difficulty and gradually progresses to a more challenging level with beautifully presented and illustrated solutions that showcase the application of various problem solving strategies.
The problems are once again indexed and colour coded according to the problem solving strategy used, allowing teachers and students to apply their previous learning of methods such as:
Guess, check and refine Draw a diagram Find a pattern Build a table Work backwards Make an organised list Solve a simpler, related problem Eliminate all but one possibility Convert to a more convenient shape Divide a complex shape
