The Targeting Mathematics textbooks form part of a comprehensive learning package that follows the latest Ministry of Education (Singapore) syllabus. Built on the world-renowned Singapore Mathematics approach, this series helps pupils not only learn maths but truly understand, enjoy, and apply it in meaningful ways.
Using the proven CPA (Concrete–Pictorial–Abstract) approach, pupils move from hands-on learning with real objects, to visual representations, and finally to abstract problem-solving. This step-by-step method makes mathematics engaging, accessible, and relevant for every learner.
Key Features of the Textbooks:
Let’s Talk About… – Colourful real-life scenarios connect mathematics to everyday experiences, making learning relatable.
See and Learn – Concepts are presented clearly and colourfully for easy understanding.
Hands-On Activity – Pupils use manipulatives to “learn by doing” and develop strong foundations.
Let’s Have Fun! – Creative, engaging activities ensure maths is enjoyable and motivating.
Pair and Share – Pair work builds communication skills and encourages peer learning.
Do and Learn – Structured exercises test understanding and reinforce key concepts.
Self-Check – Opportunities for pupils to reflect on their learning and progress.
Let’s Think Along… – Activities designed to stretch reasoning, logic, and higher-order thinking.
