These twenty A5 booklets from Eigen Publications provide ideas for classroom investigations mainly based on number. The booklets have been split into two sections, as indicated below. * Book 1 - One To Four * Book 2 - Consecutive Sums * Book 3 - Square Numbers 1 * Book 4 - Square Numbers 2 * Book 5 – Routes * Book...

These 22 A5 booklets from Eigen Publications contain a large number of games which almost exclusively focus on developing understanding of number and practicing number skills. In most cases the title gives a clear indication of the mathematical focus area and those that don’t cut across several aspects of number....

This material from Eigen Publications consists of seven booklets of which the first three relate to soccer. Many of the activities require students to obtain data from current newspapers or elsewhere. The data supplied in the booklets is significantly out of date but could be of historical interest – certainly...

These nine A5 booklets from Eigen Publications, each of about 12 pages, split into two groups. Four of the booklets provide activities that use arrow cards to support the understanding of place value and the other five booklets are independent and look at specific numerical activities. The authors state that the...

These 14 A5 booklets from Eigen Publications contain a very wide range of activities that provide practical approaches to shape which use relatively simple equipment. Virtually all of the activities focus on using correct mathematical language and encourage students to describe shapes using their properties. The...

This Eigen resource consists of 50 ‘Challenge Cards’ for children’s use. The cards are in sequences which each focus on a particular way of investigating the Eigen Square with the focus mainly being on two and three digit numbers.

This material provides construction information and guidance on the use of the ‘Eigen Square’ which is a tactile teaching resource unique to Eigen publications. It is designed to help develop children’s facility with number.

This series of activities from NASA take a mathematical approach to looking at electromagnetic radiation. They are intended as supplementary problems for students looking for additional challenges in mathematics and physical science from age 11 to 19 years. The problems were created to be authentic glimpses of...

These resources, from Nuffield Foundation, were designed as a supplement to the Nuffield Maths 5-11 project, especially those activities which could be supported and reinforced by using a calculator.

Most of the...

There is widespread agreement about the importance of mathematics for individuals and for wider society. The Advisory Committee on Mathematics Education (ACME) believes that all students should receive high quality mathematics teaching from teachers who are themselves professional learners. A world-class education...

These resources from SMILE consist of short questions designed to assess students' progress in mathematics. Each section consists of a statement which describes the mathematics being assessed, an example to help students understand what is required and questions for the students to complete. The answers to the...

This STEM resource is inspired by the Africa Prize for Engineering Innovation.

Engineering a better world is a series of activities, practical tasks and discussion points that invite young learners to explore the role that young engineers and entrepreneurs play in developing innovations that will bring...

These resources, from the HE STEM Programme South West, were produced  to enable academic staff, undergraduates, masters and PhD students in higher education institutions to undertake more effective outreach  through a better understanding of theory and practices with regard to school curricula and learning ...

A policy report produced by the Advisory Committee on Mathematics Education which argues that the key issues for the future of primary mathematics learning and teaching can only be addressed in primary schools if there is suitable provision of continuing professional development (CPD). In view of this, ACME...

This summary was produced by the Department for Education in 2012 to support schools with their behaviour policy. This document summarises the legal powers and duties that govern behaviour and attendance in school at the time of writing, and explains how they apply to teachers, governing bodies, pupils and parents...
