"There are 366 different Starters of The Day. They are activities designed for KS3 pupils to work on at the beginning of their Maths Lesson. The format lends itself to be projected from a data projector or used on an interactive whiteboard. A starter will give your lesson a focused beginning and time to attend to the other little tasks you have to do at the beginning of the lesson such as calling the register and preparing for the rest of the lesson.

Some good mental maths starters

Yenka Mathematics lets you experiment easily with 3D mathematical models, to learn about statistics, probability, geometry and coordinates. It can be used as a flexible demonstration tool - for example, on a whiteboard. Alternatively, students can use Yenka themselves, to learn by experimenting in Yenka's 3D world. There's a wide range of ready-made lessons and activities that you can use in your lessons, and a set of training videos to help you get started. And teachers and students can all use the full version of Yenka Mathematics at home, free of charge.

A huge collection of maths videos on a wide range of topics. A super resource for older students, but even better to use to brush up on your own maths and teach the lesson yourself.

 A channel dedicated to sharing wonderful, amazing, and sometimes surprising, characteristics of numbers. Perfect for using as a possible hook in math lessons, or as an FYI for the number-curious amongst us.

"MathBits.com is devoted to offering fun, yet challenging, lessons and activities in secondary (and college level) mathematics and computer programming for students and teachers."
