Visible Thinking in Mathematics 5B (3rd Edition)
Singapore's Visible Thinking in Mathematics is an ideal supplemental program for students needing extra support with the pictorial stage of Singapore's Concrete> Pictorial> Abstract method. It offers step-by-step explanations and strategies to help students visualize concepts, enabling them to solve problems by understanding them visually before advancing to more abstract skills. The program fosters mastery by presenting problems in various contexts, helping students grasp the differences between similar concepts. It also promotes critical thinking by prompting students to reflect on their problem-solving approaches. Visible Thinking Math 5B is designed for the second semester of Grade 5. Each chapter includes a thinking platform page with concept modeling through examples, along with teaching notes for additional guidance. This is followed by Attaining Mastery worksheet pages. Concepts covered in this 5B text include decimals, percentages, averages, angles, triangles, four-sided figures, and volume of cubes and cuboids. This 218-page softcover workbook is consumable (non-reproducible) and includes an answer key in the back. Please note that this series has not been revised to reflect US norms, so currency images in the money chapters are of Singapore coins and bills, and only metric measurement units are used.
