The new Theta Mathematics package will have been completely published by February/March 2012.  The first components are now available   
A complete solution for Level 7 of the New Zealand Mathematics Curriculum, the books cover all fourteen NCEA Level 2 Mathematics and Statistics Achievement Standards.  The material in the books has been selected so that schools can design courses that meet the needs of all students.  Most students will enter for 6 or 7 Achievement Standards at most, so a double-book solution means less waste but there is some overlap so a narrow choice is not dictated to schools. 

Click on the link below to see the division of Achievement Standards between Theta Mathematics and Theta Dimensions, and advice on which text to choose. 

The Theta Mathematics / Theta Dimensions split

 

Theta Dimensions covers ten Achievement Standards.  It is the ideal text for students who want to concentrate on Statistics in Year 13.  Theta Dimensions includes every Level 2 Statistics Achievement Standard, as well as AS 2.5 Networks, and 2.3 Sequences. 

Theta Dimensions also has an associated Workbook for students to cover extra material in their own time. This Workbook includes 74 self-contained assignments.

Theta Mathematics covers eight of the Achievement Standards, including all the externally assessed material.  It is the ideal text for students continuing on to do NCEA at Level 3 in Year 13.  Students taking Calculus in Year 13 should use this text, and there is enough Statistics included to also provide a pathway through to NCEA Level 3 Statistics.

There is an associated Workbook with 80 self-contained assignments.
