Using Maths: Design a Roller Coaster

Hilary Koll, Steve Mills, Korey T. Kiepert

This book really does make maths practice fun! Step into the shoes of a roller coaster designer and use your maths skills to build a hair-raising, stomach-churning new theme park ride. Use numbers, plans, shapes and measures. Calculate lengths, heights, distances and times. And use maths to produce the biggest fear factor! Numeracy work includes: numbers and the number system; calculations; handling data; measures; solving problems; and shape and space.
