Mathematics
National/government websites
www.standards.dfes.gov.uk contains the single age unit plans for numeracy.
www.qca.org.uk includes information on changes to tests, progress charts, etc.
www.cleo.ucsm.ac.uk includes resources and mixed age unit plans.
www.nrich.maths.org.uk If you do not know the NRICH site, it's well worth a look.
“Have a look at the wide range of advice and information available on the Virtual Teacher Centre at http://curriculum.becta.org.uk/docserver.php?temid=3D3D89
“7 amazingly brilliant resources for use in maths. A cylinder with different scales which you can fill up with water and empty. A number square that goes up to 13 columns and will cover over multiples. Scales that you add weights onto and it reflects the weight on the front. Just brill. Particularly useful if you have an interactive white board.” There are actually more there now . . .
http://www.standards.dfes.gov.uk/numeracy/publications/#Interactive%20Teaching%20Programs
http://www.standards.dfes.gov.uk/numeracy/teaching_resources/ was also recommended.
www.censusatschool.ntu.ac.uk has links to data about children in Africa, New Zealand and Britain which are very useful for data handling.
The BBC website has several useful areas:
www.bbc.co.uk/education/megamaths is brilliant for work on shape and times tables
www.bbc.co.uk/education/numbertime is great for number bonds
www.bbc.co.uk/education/revisewise/ has lots of ideas for revision
LEA based websites
http://www.kented.org.uk/ngfl/primary.html “is the really good one for maths assessment. . . it has some smashing ideas for using software and good maths planning.”
www.edu.dudley.gov.uk/mathematics included daily problems linked to a current news item
Its worth having a look at the leicestershire maths site. http://www.leics.gov.uk/ follow the ngfl link to numeracy. There's some great content which you may find useful.
www.rcednet.net/numeracy is a site which was developed to support the learning and teaching of mathematics in Rhondda Cynon Taff schools.
Useful school websites
One of the best school websites around - http://www.amblesideonline.co.uk/school.html
Lots of online resources - try www.etchingham.e-sussex.sch.uk for Maths PowerPoints.
For ICT based maths activities for Reception and KS1 pupils, the stuff at Toftwood Infant school goes down very well - at http://atschool.eduweb.co.uk/toftwood/resources.html
http://www.madras.fife.sch.uk/maths/ is a superb school website.
Other potentially useful sites
There are lots of ideas for using ICT in mathematics on the Nrich site
http://www.nrich.maths.org.uk/
http://www.mathszone.co.uk/ is a site needing bookmarking - aims to bring collect together and order a range of free resources discovered on the Internet, which can be used for teaching Maths in Primary Schools in the UK. There are links from the key objectives for each year group to suitable activities where available – simply brilliant!
You can find a link to Nrich (and to many more maths sites - several of them suitable for secondary and well worth a look) on the ICTeachers Maths Links page at: http://www.icteachers.co.uk/teachers/links/tnumeracy.htm
www.juniorszone.com, free KS2 literacy & numeracy on-line tutorials
http://www.enchantedlearning.com/Home.html is “another useful and fun one for home and school - loads and loads of printouts and activities.” Though another colleague warned that American spellings on this site need watching.
http://www.ex.ac.uk/cimt/res2/res2indx.htm has “some brilliant maths stuff!“
http://www.numeracy.org.uk/ is brilliant
www.fl.uu.nl/rekenweb/en/welcome.xml has games and activities – so does the mathsnet site at www.mathsnet.net
Another good source of ideas is Micromath, the journal of the ATM. See
http://www.atm.org.uk/journals/index.html A recent edition (18.1) had a short article about mathematics' teachers' attitudes to ICT.”
www.worldclassarena.org has resources which are particularly useful for the more able pupils
www.funbrain.com has lots of games and puzzles
www.counton.org.uk was initially for the Maths Year 2000 but still lots of enjoyable ideas.
www.beam.co.uk has resources such as material and publications which are available for purchase.
”This is a good site for teaching time it's called, well, "Teaching Time"
http://www.teachingtime.co.uk/ “
I use a spreadsheet based on the one I downloaded from
http://atschool.eduweb.co.uk/ufa10/num_records.htm (The Birmingham City Council resources site) to keep track of maths key objectives.
KS3 Sites
One person recommended the www.learn.co.uk Maths KS3 site, saying, “I have been using this with my top Year 6 group who need stretching. I have found it very useful, clearly laid out and with test questions at L3-6 and L5-8. And it's free!!!!”
PowerPoint presentations
There are several PowerPoint things on the Maths page of the ICTeachers Resource Vault http://www.icteachers.co.uk/resources/resources_numeracy.htm.
Fantastic free Maths powerpoints here: http://www.timetoteach.co.uk/
There are lots of Maths PowerPoint presentations (about 30) on the Teacher Resource Exchange - all free. Some really good ones too. http://tre.ngfl.gov.uk/
www.teachingtime.co.uk (www.teachingmoney.co.uk is great too!)
“Some great free powerpoints are available from www.timetoteach.co.uk for KS1
& 2 numeracy.”
Time sites
Web resources for Year 3 key objectives: Use units of time and know the relationships between them (second, minute, hour, day, week, month, year).
(Remember also - Textease clipart has a "flash" real-time clock: Look in clipart/flash directory) http://www.standards.dfes.gov.uk/numeracy/teaching_resources/year3/y123str4.PDF has the National Numeracy syllabus details.
There is a download for telling the time from the DfES Standards site, http://www.standards.dfee.gov.uk/numeracy/publications/?pub_id=10023&top_id=0&art_id=00 The link itself is: http://www.standards.dfee.gov.uk/numeracy/publications/itps/tell_the_time/
http://www.southbury.enfield.sch.uk/mw/time/clocks.swf Useful on-screen "real time" clock, digital analogue, 12/24hr, and words
See also http://www.southbury.enfield.sch.uk/mw/time/Time%20Difference.swf for 2 clocks side by side, useful for showing start / finish clocks for a period of time, and calculating elapsed time
http://www.bbc.co.uk/education/dynamo/den/matching/index.htm Games in 3 levels (notionally ages 5-9) based on "matching pairs" or "Pelmanism" Useful consolidation of reading time-related words.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/education/dynamo/den/clock/index.htm Also in 3 levels, with similar look and feel. Consolidation of setting analogue clock to a requested time.
http://www.mathcats.com/explore/age/calculator.html "How old am I" calculator - including a cake and candles, and your age in years - or weeks - or months - or days - even to counting up in seconds.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/revisewise/maths/images/maths_shape_on.gif Includes in the "Measures" area a section on revision of main facts about time. Animated. http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/revisewise/maths/shape/13_act.shtml is the related activity.
http://nrich.maths.org.uk Several useful resources, though they keep moving around.... e.g. John's Train, a lovely puzzle at http://nrich.maths.org.uk/mathsf/journalf/nov03/stage3new.html#732 Use the search facility to search for measures/time. Activities on basic concepts, calendars and modulus arithmetic.
This has some clock faces useful for making worksheets: http://www.links4kids.co.uk/clock.htm
http://www.teachingtime.co.uk/ is chargable (for school use) but with eLC is probably worth getting. Downloadable for home use free, so good for mentioning to parents.
Also worth a look: http://www.madras.fife.sch.uk/maths/
