ClubMaths™ activities

Do you need enrichment tasks for the classroom?
Are you looking for quality extension materials for Gifted & Talented provision?
Would you like to run a regular maths club, but don't have time to prepare materials?
Do you already run a maths club, but need more materials or fresh ideas?

Each ClubMaths™ activity is on a well-researched theme and is ready for use with pupils. Unlike traditional sources of material, ClubMaths™ activities are self-contained and include comprehensive support for the teacher.

Enterprising Mathematics Resources CD

The CD provides materials for pupils aged 15/16, either for classroom use or for a larger event such as a “maths day”. Of course, teachers may find other ways of using the resources, which have been selected to give pupils and teachers a flavour of the Enterprising Mathematics competitions.

Contents include Problems, Relays and “hands-on” Activities.
