New Problem-Solving Processes in Mathematics is a series of Primary Mathematics books that exposes pupils to the various essential types of problem-solving heuristics identified in the practices in each topic.

Guided examples in the books employ the 4-step problem-solving approach to give pupils a framework or structure in tackling word problems.

• Step 1: Understanding the problem
• Step 2: Devising a plan
• Step 3: Carrying out the plan
• Step 4: Looking back

Through ample drilling exercises, pupils will thus be ready to take on challenging word problems in schools.
