A journey into the world of numbers, which are over our heads, under our feet, and all around us. The Numberverse is especially for people who don't like maths. If you're one of those people who find maths boring, hard, annoying or pointless then The Numberverse is for you to enjoy. First we'll look at stuff you find all around you. In the walls, and the bricks. In the arches of the church. In pine cones and petals. Carry on like this and numbers will start jumping out, patterns will appear before your eyes, and everywhere you look the secrets of The Numberverse will open up to you. And we won't stop there. Would you like to know the history of zero? And what people did before zero was invented? And how people got along without fractions and percentages before they were invented? Do we even need them, anyway? It's all in The Numberverse. And you will understand every word of it if you can understand what you are reading now. It's true: if you can count, and you are curious - well, then you have all the knowledge you need for the journey. If maths has always been a closed book to you, now is the time to turn the first page. For primary and secondary teachers of children aged 7 - 13 years old. The Numberverse addresses the conceptual development of number and shows how to build firm foundations in maths. Also suitable for parents who want to inspire their children, but perhaps never enjoyed maths themselves. PLEASE NOTE: There is no test ANYWHERE in this book
