Mathematics for International Student: IB MYP-6

FOREWORD
This book may be used as a general textbook at about 6th Grade (or Year 6) level in classes wher
students are expected to complete a rigorous course in Mathematics. It is the first book in our Middl
Years series ‘Mathematics for the International Student’.
In terms of the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP), our series does not pretend to be a definitive course
In response to requests from teachers who use ‘Mathematics for the International Student’ at IB Diplom
level, we have endeavoured to interpret their requirements, as expressed to us, for a series that woul
prepare students for the Mathematics courses at Diploma level. We have developed the serie
independently of the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) in consultation with experience
teachers of IB Mathematics. Neither the series nor this text is endorsed by the IBO.
In regard to this book, it is not our intention that each chapter be worked through in full. Time constraint
will not allow for this. Teachers must select exercises carefully, according to the abilities and prio
knowledge of their students, to make the most efficient use of time and give as thorough coverage o
content as possible…
