The aim is for the learner to acquire the skill of drawing vertical,
horizontal and oblique lines, and apply these skills in other tasks,
such as joining two points (matching answers), underline (key words),
learn to write letters made of straight lines (t, l, i).

MORE PENCIL SKILLS

(contains 50 worksheets)

Reinforce the previous knowledge and skill of drawing straight lines
and extends the skill by introducing circles and curved lines. Some
tasks incorporate all learned lines in producing a picture. Spatial
orientation skills are enhanced.

DRAW AND TALK

(contains 44 worksheets)

Drawing and painting are part of human nature, it is the urge to
create and communicate through a piece of art. Children love to

DRAWING WORKSHOP

(contains 46 worksheets)

Our society places a lot of emphasis on the skill of drawing. It is
generally felt that representing ideas, events and objects by way of
sketches and diagrams contributes to the aim of problem solving.
Drawing skills are much more then just pencil and paper activities.

The activities may be printed on different kinds of paper to give
children more choices. They may be used on clipboards to enable
children to draw anywhere they choose. They can be enlarged and used
on easels to serve as a background idea for painting.

benefits. All the activities are analysed, broken down into simple
tasks and steps. The tasks are modified to contain a simple,
quick-step approach that needs no prior knowledge, skill or talent.

The activities are structured to be meaningful, reflect our world
and our experience of it. They are designed to open the mind, promote
inner language, intuition and thinking skills.

LITERACY

LET'S PRACTICE SUBTRACTION

(contains 39 worksheets)

Students learn to subtract 2 digit numbers from numbers up to 99.
The activities are divided into four sections. Each section covers a
different aspect of subtraction, starting from subtracting multiples
of 10, and progressing gradually to more difficult subtraction
algorithms. One of section deals with money. Both vertical and
horizontal forms of subtraction are included to imply the concept of
place value, emphasising that the first digits are tens, the second
are ones, subtract from the ones first and then from the tens.

Money is used to reinforce the concept of place value, notes and
coins are used to demonstrate the concept of tens and ones.

Subtraction system is related to the budget system (eg. saved,
spent, left over). Planning what could be bought for $.

Contains 19 pages of vertical algorithm arrangements, 9 pages of
horizontal algorithm arrangements and 11 pages of money solving
problems (39 worksheets, 17 text and other pages).

TENS AND ONES, FOCUS ON MONEY

(contains 29 worksheets)

The activities are designed for students to count, order and
represent two digit numbers and groups of objects up to 100. Students
will learn that numbers can be represented using groups of tens and
ones and that counting large numbers by bundling works better than
counting by ones.

The concept of counting by grouping and bundling is used to
reinforce the understanding that money, like other sets of objects, is
represented by groups of tens and ones.

Outcomes:

* General concepts.

SELF CHECKING MATHS ADDITION LEVEL 1

This workbook is an essential tool for teachers, parents and
students to teach and learn to add. The activities are set out in
gradual sequential order, so students can learn to add one step a
time, from adding one, then one and another one, two, three and so
on... using the adding on method.

SELF CHECKING MATHS ADDITION LEVEL 2

The program provides learning experiences and assessment
opportunities for students who have difficulties in learning and

suitable computation methods to arrive at the correct answers.

Children learn in many different ways. Not all strategies are
suitable for each child. One strategy might be helpful to one child
and absolutely confusing to another. One strategy might be useful to
begin with but another one will make the computation more workable at
a later stage.

LUK

It is back! LUK is a game, it is fun and yet students learn. LUK has
a 40 years history in Europe. In Australia LUK has been known as
Tutor. Tutor is no longer available, therefore we have introduced LUK.

A student can work by himself, check his answers and self correct
the mistakes.

* The student will experience satisfaction from work well done when
viewing the completed LUK pattern.
* The student will be motivated to progress to the next page.
* Working on the tasks, page by page, the student will acquire all
the necessary strategies to add two or more numbers confidently.
* While learning, the student will improve his visual skills, like
focusing, discrimination, figure ground, orientation and linear
sequencing, the all important prerequisites to learning.
