The primary mathematics taught -from class 1 to 5-builds the ground which supports secondary mathematics, and is vital for students’ success in those years. When it is brought together and presented in one logical sequence, it becomes simpler and easier to understand; it avoids repetition, goes to the heart of the subject, and makes interconnections visible. This is the only book which covers five years of mathematics in one small volume and it will give you a perspective that is impossible to get anywhere else.

 There are nine numbers-1 to 9- what this book begins with and gradually builds up to class 5 using simple language. It explains different number systems, basic operations, and their properties using number line, set, and algebra. It stresses fractions and decimals-the key topics- which form the adult world of numbers. It has 5 parts, 14 chapters, and 160 lessons; each part covers one major objective; each chapter begins with a map showing key ideas graphically; each lesson is focused on one specific idea, followed by cross references and exercises; the cross references connect different ideas across the book. It also covers elementary shapes, graphs, and their properties.

Primary students can review their past learning and read some of the topics yet to come; secondary and higher secondary students can master their base; parents can guide their children to certain success; students appearing for competitive examinations can ace their tests. This book will have a remarkable impact on students’ class participation and their performance in later years. You can also use it to brush up your own mathematical skill to help you in your day-to-day work. This is your go-to-book on everyday mathematics: a constant companion.

Overall, this book will help India achieve #1 rank in Ease of Doing Mathematics (EoDM).

The Question of Accountability in Education is Vital: China’s New Education Reform Shows the Way

Image
  Synopsis : Positioning states, society, and schools as service providers, China’s new education reform makes parents solely accountable for their children’s success in education; whereas in India’s New Education Policy 2020, accountability question hasn’t been addressed, parents have merely been coopted; states, schools, and tuition companies continue to play lion’s role with little accountability. China has passed a new education reform law recently making parents responsible for family education; while state, schools, and society are to provide guidance, support, and service for the family education; consequently, parents are responsible for balanced development of children: education, physical exercise, rest, and recreation; making sure they’re not addicted to internet and are not overburdened with academic exercises. Even before these reforms, China’s school education has been world’s envy for quite some time; in 2018, for 15-year-old students, their PISA scores in ma...

Infinity : the New Logo of Facebook-Meta, Does it mean an Insanely Large Number

Image
If infinity were to be an insanely large number, it wouldn’t be infinity, it would be precisely that number. In fact, infinity isn’t a very large number but is a promise to be larger than the largest number; if the largest number is 9, infinity is 10; if it is one Googol, infinity is one Googol and one. In short, infinity is a very competitive minded concept, has no fixed value, guaranteed to be larger than the largest, always remaining beyond-reach. The truth is: infinity is not a number at all but is a statement of fact that there is no greatest number.  Class 1 arithmetic explains the process of infinity: if you add 1 to a given number, you get its successor number, and the successor number is greater than the predecessor number. For instance, to get the successor number of 9, add 1 to it; viz, 9+1=10 and 10 is greater than 9. This very process ensures infinity: to get a number larger than an insanely large number: just add 1 to it, the resultant sum will be a greater number. Th...

                     What do you call water in arithmetic? Water (𝐻2𝑂) is made up of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen, whereas hydrogen and oxygen are not made up of any other elements. In fact, there are 94 natural elements-arranged in a table called periodic table- which make up all matter in this universe. In periodic table, hydrogen is #1 and oxygen is #8.  Take number 6; which is made up of one atom of 2 and one atom of 3 i.e., 6=2 × 3. In contrast, 11 is not made up of any other element. The basic elements in arithmetic periodic table are 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29, etc. These elements are called prime numbers and they make up all numbers in this universe.  For example, take number 12, it is made up of two atoms of 2 and one atom of 3 i.e., 12 = 2 × 2 × 3 . Furthermore, 12 can’t be broken down into any other smaller element; its composition is unique.  What do you call water in arithmetic?...
