INDIVIDUAL TUITION
Show no interest in boastful
comparisons of who is on what book.
The winner-loser atmosphere often
discourages the slower students.
Show interest in an individual's
progress within their own level.

WHAT THIS
WORKBOOK DOES
This workbook utilises fhe proven
techniques of the innovative Fitzroy
Community Schoolto produce a higher
standard of Maths.
Every student accelerates in Maths
when allowed to proceed at their own
level and at their own speed, without
regard to conventional age
expectations.
The Fitzroy approach gives each
student, regardless of current
achievement level, a sense of
accomplishment with each session.
This is one of the secrets of the
success of the Fitzroy lVaths Program.
The Fitzroy Maths Program consists of
individual tuition work books. They
are homely, write-on, gently-graded
and repetitive. They minimise early
dependence on English and they are
short enough to deliver a regular
sense of accomplishment.
It is counter-productive with individual
tuition to promote a sense of
competition in the class-room.
Emphasise the greater importance of
thorough mastery over speed of
progress. (This approach will always
result in greater ultimate achievement
anyway).
In these Fitzroy Maths Work Books
there is more emphasis on the pattern
and order of the world of numbers.
This will result in increased speed and
greater depth of understanding.
Primary students need the greatest
support in number strand, involving
mental flexibility in problem-solving,
robust calculation techniques,
familiarity with different number fields
(integers, fractions, decimals),
applications and spatial formulae.
Maths success later on depends
primarily on competency in this strand.
These earlier Fitzroy Maths Work
Books are designed to efficiently build
mastery in essential Basic Maths Skills
which then flow easily into the other
strands.
We are happy to hear suggesfions,
ideas and experiences from teachers
regarding fhese lndividual Tuition
Work Books.

An axis of symmetry is a line that cuts a figure into two symmetrical parts.
The figure on one side is the mirror-image of the other side.
We say one "axis", but two or more axes (sounds like ax-ees).
