FOREWORD
New Wave Mental Maths is a series of seven pupil workbooks, written to provide a comprehensive and structured
daily mental maths programme for classes from Senior Infants to 6th Class. All strands and strand units of the
mathematics curriculum are covered. The series has been updated and revised. Contemporary colour and appealing
artwork have been added. Question types have been revised, reworded or rewritten. New to this edition is the
inclusion of a separate problem-solving column in each week’s unit of work, to enable teachers to focus on specific
problem-solving skills and strategies.
New Wave Mental Maths is designed to:
• provide complete coverage of all mental maths-related strands and strand units of the mathematics curriculum;
• encourage and develop mental calculation concepts and skills;
• constantly revise the different strands and strand units;
• develop and reinforce problem-solving strategies;
• develop and maintain speed of recall; and
• introduce, practise and consolidate a range of mathematical vocabulary and language.
Assessment activities are provided for pupils to assess, monitor and record their own performance on a weekly basis.
A separate Teachers Manual is available to accompany the New Wave Mental Maths series. This manual contains
guidelines to help develop mental strategies; suggestions for classroom use; assessment material; list of concepts
developed and answers for all the pupil workbooks.
