ten
quick questions |
www.csfsoftware.co.uk |
this
is a brilliant piece of software that i regularly use in class.
it provides "ten quick questions" on nearly every
subject from key stages 3 and 4. you can adjust the timer to
suit the needs of your child, the software generates random
questions so the exercises are different each time, and the
answers are provided! NOTE: this
is what is known as nag ware, as
the program will freeze for 30 seconds every once in a while
until you buy it, but well worth this minor annoyance.

is a good one if you are feeling a little bit creative. it is
a piece of software that enables you to quickly produce jigsaw
and domino matching-up activities for any topic you like. the
software is really easy to use, the pupils tend to enjoy the
activity (especially the cutting out), and if you click here,
you can have a load of my jigsaws to get you started! |

google
pack |

this
pack contains some really good free stuff from Google. just
choose the software you want and ignore the rest. the fancy
photo editing software, google
earth and the anti-virus stuff
are pretty good, and if you want to download videos from
YouTube and then watch them offline,
you can do that too (click here
for more details) |

these
are brilliant. they are packs produced by the DFES for children
to take home during the holidays before either their SATs
or their GCSEs. the idea
is that the pupils send 10 minutes a day for 10 days covering
each topic they will need for their exams. the support letter
explains all. just click on the link and
save them to your computer. NOTE:
in order to view some of these files you will need Acrobat
Reader, the latest version of which can be freely downloaded
by clicking on the Google Pack
above! |

loads
and loads of brilliant puzzle packs to download for free. the
shape stuff is amazing, and I am very partial to using the logic
puzzles as starters in my lessons. there may not be a lot of
maths involved, but the thinking skills that such activities
develop are essential for success in all subject. |

this |
www.figurethis.org |
this
is a really nice idea. its a pack of fun, interesting maths
challenges, aimed at younger pupils, which can be freely printed
out and distributed. what i like best is the fact that there
is a parents' section (as all good websites should have!), encouraging
you to get involved with the development of your child's maths! |
