This collection, produced by MathsBox, contains a wide selection of resources for use in the mathematics classroom with a wide range of abilities and ages. The resources can be used as starter activities, for consolidation work and revision. There are a number of ideas such as treasure hunts, maths loops, bingo...

Each numbered card contains a question on the given topic and an answer to a question contained on a different card. Students are required to answer the question and then find the card containing their answer. The question on this next card is then answered. The process continues until the student returns to their...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of matrices, often used in the field of engineering. They include determinants, multiplying matrices, the inverse of a matrix and Cramer’s rule, which uses determinants to solve simultaneous equations.
