$15.70 Description
Workbooks are more like non-consumable exercise banks. Students must show their work on a separate piece of paper. Problems provide specific instructions on when and when not to use calculators. Unlike Primary Math, workbook exercises are not directly correlated with the course book. In general, workbook exercises for each chapter should probably be completed before moving onto the next chapter. The workbook also contains sample tests and exams. Tests cover two chapters, and they usually consists of 6-8 multi-part, free-response questions. Midterms/final exams are longer.
Publisher's Description of New Elementary Math 1 Workbook
Workbooks include end-of-chapter questions for more practice, and many tests (periodic, term, semester, and year-end). The workbook is not a necessary component of the New Elementary Math program, but is an excellent supplement.
Note: Soft cover. Includes answer keys. There is no space to work the problems in the workbooks.
Category Description for New Elementary Math (7-8)
New Elementary Math (NEM) is a rigorous, concept-focused Singapore Math program for Grades 7-8 that bridges Primary Math and higher-level algebra. NEM 1 covers introductory algebra, while NEM 2 covers intermediate algebra, providing a strong foundation for high school mathematics.
The program emphasizes mathematical reasoning, problem-solving strategies, and clear conceptual understanding through detailed explanations, worked examples, and challenging exercises.
Key Curriculum Features:
- Straightforward, in-depth explanations with a focus on concepts and applications
- Graded exercise sets that increase in difficulty
- Problem-solving techniques (guess & check, working backwards, models, etc.)
- Challenger problems and investigation exercises to build higher-order thinking
- Cumulative review through Revision and Miscellaneous exercises
- Sample final exams included in each textbook
Program Components:
- Textbooks: Non-consumable books with lessons, examples, and exercise sets
- Solutions Manuals: Step-by-step solutions to all problems
- Optional Workbooks: Additional practice problems, sample tests, and exams (not directly correlated to the textbook)
Important Notes:
- Significant jump in difficulty from Primary Math 6. It is recommended to use placement tests or start with NEM 1 even for advanced students.
- Uses metric units and some different notation conventions (spaces instead of commas for large numbers, dots for repeating decimals, military time).
- Weaker in coordinate graphing compared to some U.S. programs.
New Elementary Math curriculum stands out for its depth, clear explanations, and focus on mathematical reasoning and problem-solving. It is an excellent choice for students who have completed Primary Math and are ready for a challenging, concept-driven algebra program.
