How to write what you want to say... in mathematics

How to write what you want to say... in mathematics

by Lyn Carter and Patricia Hipwell 

'A guide for students of mathematics who know what they want to say but can't find the words provides parents, teachers and students with a unique tool for improving mathematical writing and suits students from the middle years of schooling to tertiary level.'

It is a common fallacy that mathematics does not require students to write. The writing demands of this subject are different from other subjects. The writing must be correct and the mathematics accurate. This book provides students with language in the form of sentence starters, connectives and useful mathematical language to enable them to write correctly.
