Features:
"Mathematics is an excellent tool."
"Mathematics reflects the truth of objective things."
"Mathematics not only possesses truth but also possesses the highest and most sublime beauty. In mathematics, people will find true joy."
"Mathematics can make your thinking correct and agile. With correct and agile thinking, you will have the possibility of climbing the mountain of science."
The profound remarks of the sages have sparked waves of enthusiasm among young people to explore the potential of mathematics. To meet the needs of, we have specially invited experienced coaches from mathematics olympiad schools in Beijing and Jiangsu provinces to compile this set of primary school "21st Century Gold Medal Olympiad Mathematics Competition Textbooks." This set of textbooks has the following features:
(1) Concise Explanation and Practice, Clear Themes. Each grade is divided into two volumes, with each volume organized into several lessons based on different themes. In the example explanations, a special section titled "This is How to Think" is included to guide rational thinking, identify key points in problem-solving, and train exercises that focus on inspiring thinking and strengthening the transformation of knowledge into ability. This provides a systematic and comprehensive demonstration platform for students participating in various mathematics competitions. This is the unique feature that distinguishes this book from other similar textbooks.
(2) Interwoven Framework, Step-by-Step Progression. The grades form a spiral progressive framework, with vertical connections and horizontal independence. Lower grades cultivate mathematical emotions through illustrated methods; middle grades help students initially grasp reasoning and judgment using mathematical language; and grades 5 and 6 use reasoning, judgment, analysis, and summarization to improve the ability to apply basic principles to solve practical problems. Some more challenging questions serve as a stepping stone to motivate students to win gold medals.
(3) Practical and Efficient, Highly Forward-Thinking. We always stay focused on the latest trends in mathematics education and the new directions of "Olympiad" competition questions. We have introduced situational problems, exploratory problems, open-ended problems, and research-type problems. For different types of questions, we appropriately add "Summary," "Explanation," or "Smart Discovery" to help guide and organize the material. Selected examples and training exercises are inspired by competition questions from various regions, such as "Olympiad" and "Hua Luojiang Mathematics," and are accompanied by instructive classroom teaching. Here, we express our sincere gratitude to the question-setters.
This set of textbooks is suitable for classroom teaching in olympiad mathematics schools, Hua Luojiang mathematics schools, and various mathematics interest schools. It is also the best resource for parents to help their children learn mathematics. It should be noted that due to the haste in writing and limited knowledge, there may be inappropriate or incorrect places. We welcome criticism and corrections from teachers and students.
