This set of 20 mathematics article provides the answer to that age old student question: When will we ever use this in real life? Well the answer as it turns out could be given in the perfect grab and go, print and provide resource that can supplement lessons. This set of 20 articles has 10 that focus on where specific topics of mathematics are used in everyday life. While the other 10 focus on where mathematics is used in specific careers.
It is a set of articles with questions to check comprehension and inspire mathematical thinking with real life connections. I am very happy with this small series of mathematics articles and they are rich with information and the why and when of mathematics. Each mathematics article includes a fun fact(s) to add to the knowledge gained from this article. Formatted in an easy to read and digest manner, each paragraph is numbered to help with referencing and each question answer has a paragraph reference number to point to the specific information (where applicable). They also have two images as well to give a bit of visual flair for students to enjoy.

- Useful for substitute (sub) teaching
- To extend students
- To increase mathematics literacy in your class
- A weekly reading task
- Great as a lesson filler when class goes too fast
