Teaching suggestions, extension work, maths language, resources and evaluations are available for each lesson, catering for differentiation and meeting individual learning needs of students. ID cards are also provided to help develop students' mathematical language and concepts, and blackline masters are given to provide extra exercises for particular areas of the syllabus.
