CambridgeMATHS NSW Stage 5 Year 9 Core & Advanced / Extension Paths Third Edition (digital)

Complete and authoritative coverage of the new NSW syllabus for Stages 4 and 5, now with powerful diagnostic tools to identify and address gaps in student knowledge.

What’s new?

• New content, such as Networks in Stage 5, is delivered in the logical and sequential way you expect from CambridgeMATHS to encourage deep understanding. 
• The resources have been judiciously prepared to help deliver the Core–Path structure of the new syllabus, with two Stage 5 books at each year level in Years 9 and 10: one pathway suited to students aiming to study Standard at Stage 6, and another pathway for students aiming to study Advanced and Extension. 
• In the Pathway to Standard books, some selected, carefully labelled Advanced Path topics have been included to ensure that students have the flexibility to move between paths and prepare for the Stage 6 course they choose. 
• Restructured exercises address the needs of a wider range of students as they progress through Stages 4 and 5. 
• Building Understanding questions follow the Key Ideas for the Stage 4 and Stage 5 Pathway to Advanced/Extension courses to consolidate skills before students attempt the exercises.
• Now You Try questions for all worked examples provide immediate practice at the same type of question before starting the exercises. 
• Targeted skillsheets – one for each lesson in the book – focus on a single skill or a small set of related skills and are supported by worked examples. 
• Students can track their own progress through Learning Intentions for every lesson and a Success Criteria checklist at the end of every chapter. 
• Past, present and future learning places the lesson in the context of the syllabus, highlighting topics that build on previous learning, and topics that will be extended at a later stage. 
• Working Mathematically investigative tasks in each chapter provide opportunities for students to apply their learning and prepare them for Stage 6 investigative-style assignments. 
• Editable PowerPoint lesson summaries in the Online Teaching Suite, ideal for classroom presentation, help focus student attention and promote class discussion. 
• Introducing our new diagnostic assessment tool: developed in consultation with classroom teachers, this powerful tool offers the flexibility to build your tests using either the structure of the textbook or the syllabus, and choose to drill right down to the level of Mathematical Skill. Identify and address gaps in student knowledge with intuitive reporting and follow-up work suggestions.
