In early childhood education it has been demonstrated that a correlation exists between the level of a child’s mathematical ability and their future academic success. The reverse of this relationship has also been observed, where children who are behind the mathematical skills of their peers, continue to fall behind in future studies (Pelkowski, et al. 2019).Furthermore, it is well established in literature that the more maths learning opportunities a child is exposed to, the more growth they will experience in math knowledge (Piasta, et al. 2015).
???? Logic
- 20 x Pattern Recognition Problems
- 30 x Sudoku Puzzles
- 30 x 2D Mazes
- 30 x 3D Mazes
In today’s ‘Age of Information’, it is of great importance to equip students with critical thinking, and logical reasoning skills to effectively decipher and make meaning from large amounts of information (Fitzgerald, 2005). Logical reasoning assists in construction of concepts and knowledge in the learning process (Ongcoy, 2016). This book includes logic puzzles to promote the cognitive development and logical reasoning to improve their academic performance in high school, and beyond (Bouhnik, Giat, 2009)! Shayer and Adey (1993) found that at the completion of a 2-year science program designed to promote formal operational thinking, improvements were seen in maths, english and science results in the British National Examinations.
This book is designed to provide a learning opportunity to foster the curiosity and confidence of children aged 9 – 14 and set them well on the path to academic success. ???? ????

Another useless boring repetitious book. I am an experienced teacher and private tutor and I often hear children say they dislike of even hate Maths. If they’re given this book their hatred will be well founded. This is so sad as watching children begin to understand and love Maths is wonderful. There are many inspiring Maths books available.

As a teacher, I knew when buying this book that it would be very useful as an extension tool. With a focus on English, Maths and Logic, this book has a perfect range of activities for all. I work with children ages 9-11, but although the book states suitable for ages 9-14, I know my older children can be challenged by the activities in it. There is a contents page for each section that talks you through the activities and gives an explanation for how to do it which I really appreciated as some activities, I had never seen before! Would recommend.
