This is to avoid becoming confused or overwhelmed.Once you’ve learned a trick, practise it as often as you can: later the same day and in the following days and weeks. Share it with other people; use it as a family, class, or party trick. Test yourself during quiet times at home.The book doesn’t need to be read from cover to cover. You can dip in and out, starting with the trick that looks most appealing or makes the most sense to you.Different brains respond differently to maths methods. Don’t worry if some tricks don’t make sense straight away. Leave them for now, enjoy another trick, then come back to it later. It’s fine to learn only some tricks in this book.
