Maths Week Websites

Maths Week 2015 is about to start (Oct 10-18th)! I have outlined some of my favourite websites to use in the classroom for Maths that might be useful for the upcoming Maths Week .

1. Interactive Sites

This is not only for Maths but it has some great interactive Maths games for the children to practice. It is easy to navigate as it breaks it up into Maths categories. As it is an American site, it isn't too useful for measurement but aside from that, I use it regularly in the classroom.

2. Countdown

The senior classes love this They have six numbers and a target number to make using the six numbers and any operations. It is an excellent way to put their tables and mental maths to use!

3. Woodlands Maths
This is a firm favourite with many teachers. It also has tools that you can used teaching such as interactive hundred squares.

4. Topmarks Maths

My favourite game on this a timed game converting fractions to decimals or vice versa. It can also be used to convert different lengths. It is a good assessment tool to see if children can convert them quickly.

5. ixl.com

What I like about this site is that you can select your class level and particular skill/topic that you are teaching. It does have a daily limit of the amount of tasks you can complete but can be a useful early finisher activity.

Have a look at the official Maths Week Website here for more ideas.
