The Numicon Geometry, Measurement and Statistics 3 Teaching Pack comprises a Teaching Resource Handbook and an Implementation Guide, providing the core materials you need to start teaching children aged 7 to 8. The Teaching Resource Handbook provides step-by-step activities for developing children's understanding of geometry, measurement and statistics. With a great emphasis on problem-solving through real-world contexts and practical planning and assessment guidance, the Teaching Resource Handbook will support you with developing children's mathematical understanding using Numicon. Photocopiable activities for home, linked to classroom activities, give children the opportunity to practise and discuss maths in a fun, engaging way. Accompanied with editable planning and printable photocopy masters, you can personalise to suit the needs of your children. The Implementation Guide offers guidance on what Numicon is, gives advice on how best to implement Numicon in your school and describes the Key Mathematical Ideas that underpin work within this year. With information on the theory behind Numicon, this guide will inspire you in building a secure future in mathematics for all children.

Numicon builds a deep understanding of maths through a multi-sensory approach, developing children's fluency, reasoning and problem-solving. The Numicon Geometry, Measurement and Statistics 3 Explorer Progress Book supports the activities in the Numicon Geometry, Measurement and Statistics 3 Teaching Resource Handbook and is a great assessment tool, allowing teachers to gather evidence of children's achievements. The book contains fun and engaging activities for children to complete. Each activity links to a topic from the Teaching Resource Handbook, offering you opportunities to assess individual children's understanding and monitor progress in geometry, measurement and statistics. Children have the freedom to record their answers in their own way, allowing you to see their thinking, and the use of real-life contexts allows you to assess children's ability to use and apply their maths learning.

This is an examination of the part played by Edinburgh and South-East Scotland in World War II. In October 1939 the River Forth was the target of the first air raid on Britain. As well as looking at this battle, this book examines the German military effort against Edinburgh and surrounding communities. As the Forth was a vital port in the war effort, it was heavily garrisoned and fortified. Jeffrey describes plans which were made to counter the threat of invasion. Captain Archibald Ramsay (MP for Peebles and South Midlothian) spent more than four years of the war in Brixton prison, regarded as a pro-fascist. Research reveals that in the years up to 1940, support among influential Scots for Hitler was more widespread than has previously been thought. Documents describe the efforts made by MI5 to ensnare Nazi sympathisers. Edinburgh was also the scene of a secret war, which included the career of Robert Petter, a German spy arrested in Waverley station. The text also covers the strategic deception operations, undertaken to convince the Germans that the allied invasion of Norway was imminent, military training in the area and the social changes brought about by the war.
