Forty Harder Problems for the Classroom
How the publisher describes it:
“This collection of challenging mathematical problems is suitable for anyone over the age of 11 who enjoys thinking about non-routine problems. Working on these problems helps learners to use and apply their mathematical knowledge and skills.”
Review by Ros Hyde
In brief:
I can think of lots of pupils I’ve taught who would have enjoyed the challenge of these problems.
“Engaging and accessible problems”
This is a very attractive and engaging book I enjoyed dipping into.
It has a good range of engaging and accessible problems suitable for able pupils in secondary schools. The emphasis is on exploring problems and on reasoning and proof. Some hints and comments are included in the back of the book. I can think of lots of pupils I’ve taught who would have enjoyed the challenge of these problems.
