Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Teacher Review
Tom Thumb's Musical Maths by Helen MacGregor is an excellent book of songs and chants that help to develop children's maths skills. It is a book meant for teachers, but could be used by any parent at home to consolidate the skills that children are learning at school.

The book is divided into four sections with songs covering the topics of counting, number and algebra, shape, space and measures and finally mental arithmetic. All the songs are set to familiar tunes, for example, Three blind mice, and for more musically talented people the song melodies are at the back of the book.

Each page is clearly laid out with the song title, the tune, and the words to the song. In the bottom right-hand corner of each page is a summary of the maths focus for that song and in the bottom left-hand corner of the page are the first notes of each melody. Three symbols are also used throughout the book to indicate a description of how to use the song, other mathematical things that could be done and musical suggestions.

Tom Thumb's Musical Maths is a book well worth buying to help any Key Stage 1 child with their maths and is therefore suitable for children aged 5-7 years old. --Amanda York

Synopsis
With this book children can explore addition with Baa baa maths sheep", learn about money with "Sing a song of pocket money", and join the sailor who goes to sea to see what shapes he can see. Aimed at teachers of Key Stage 1 wanting to make mathematics more fun, interesting and memorable through song. No music reading is required. There are songs featuring numbers, adding, subtracting, measuring, position, and shapes. In addition there are teacher's notes with activities ideas."
