MIghTY Maths offers Transition Year students and their teachers, a collection of mini-projects and challenges in mathematics which are designed to stimulate the curiosity of TY students. Grounded in the historical origins of many mathematical concepts, this book provides opportunities for students to explore many challenging concepts in an enticing and enlightening way. Students can investigate codes and ciphers, engage in exotic base jumping and even construct number tricks to test on their friends.
MIghTY Maths is intended to be used either as a basic maths book for a TY class or to be used by students who would like to explore some maths by themselves. The emphasis is on understanding and students are encouraged to study the examples provided, before tackling the activities.
