Description
Packed with compelling maths activities presented in a colourful and engaging way, Number Quest will help kids improve their number skills – and have fun while they puzzle.
Practise and perfect times tables, master 2D and 3D shapes, crack logic puzzles and hone mental maths skills in this quirky, upbeat activity book. Animal characters address the reader directly with speech bubbles throughout, sharing tips and maths facts to enhance understanding and engagement.
Puzzles are presented using a limited colour palette and infographic-style design. Mathematical content is split into four topical chapters – Numbers, Measurements, Shapes and Statistics – with each chapter following the KS2 curriculum (for ages 7–9) and featuring a new set of themed animal characters. Each activity works as a standalone piece, so the reader can dip in and out as they choose.
Number Quest will be fully checked for age level and accuracy by experienced educational consultant, Kirstin Swanson.
