I use New Wave Mental Maths each year in First and Second Classes for homework Monday-Thursday. There are 10 questions each night. Students are able to answer most of the questions by themselves and there are one or two challenging questions each night. We do the Friday box in school on Fridays. This shows me how well the student has grasped the new concepts. Well laid out book.. Sinéad MurphyNew Wave Mental Maths are used throughout the school.

We currently use New Wave Mental Maths throughout the school. It is very popular with our children (as per a recent survey!) and it provides great graded exercise of each topic throughout the year. Super for revision and a very good structured approach to the exercises. Joan-Marie Healy The New Wave Mental Maths is brilliant - it offers a wide variety of material in concise format. We use it a lot for homework. It gives the children a chance to practice topics we have moved on from and at the same time, gives teachers an indication of where a review might be needed. The mix of topics means that all children have a chance to succeed. Jennifer Holland
