Stories for Maths: The Riverbank Races

The Wild Buddies are all set to compete in the Riverbank Races, but the other team, the River Rangers, don't want to play by the rules. Will the result be fair in the end? Stories for Maths helps develop maths mastery through the power of story. This series aligns with the White Rose Maths schemes of learning. Each book has questions at the bottom of the pages and an activity page at the end of

the story, which help to draw out that learning by asking questions and encouraging talk about maths. Key maths words and phrases are also highlighted in each book, further helping to deepen understanding and grow children's mathematical skills. The books in Reception/Primary 1 are designed for an adult to read to a child, although there is some decodable text that children may be able to read themselves. This book aligns with White Rose Maths for Reception, Make connections, Step 1. Deepen Understanding.
