What to expect from the second edition of Max Maths Primary: A Singapore Approach

30 April 2024

The second edition of Max Maths Primary: A Singapore Approach is here!

Max Maths Primary: A Singapore Approach Second Edition has been developed by internationally renowned experts for Macmillan Education in partnership with Star Publishing, Singapore’s leading publisher for primary mathematics. Based on research and substantial evidence, the Max Maths series is a highly effective approach to teaching that ensures ALL students succeed. 

The Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract (CPA) Approach is used to teach each core mathematics concept. This methodology encourages students to think mathematically instead of learning by rote topics and concepts they do not understand. Max Maths Primary: A Singapore Approach Second Edition is designed to help students develop high-level cognitive skills which will enable greater progression. 

The second edition has been updated to the current Cambridge syllabus. Units have been reordered to match the new curriculum learning journey and the content has been updated to cover the new Learning Objectives. 

Below are some examples of new features and content from across the series. 

  • Increased focus on Odd and Even numbers
  • Practical activities for measuring objects in kg and g
  • New unit: Area and Perimeter 
  • Covers subtracting fractions with the same denominator 
  • Using symbols to represent quantities in addition and subtraction calculations 
  • Organising, representing and interpreting dot plots 
  • Composing, decomposing and regrouping numbers with up to 3 decimal places 

and much more!

We are also excited to announce our brand-new Max Maths videos with co-author Andrew Jeffrey, coming soon!

Keep your eyes peeled for updates.
