"Sketchcasting is a new way to communicate something online by recording a sketch, optionally with your voice speaking. Any sketch can then be embedded on your blog/ homepage for people to play-back, and you can also point people to your sketchcast channel here (or let them subscribe to your sketchcast RSS feed). Sketchcasting is new but it's based on an old principle: the whiteboard (or the napkin in a bar) on which you sketch something to get a concept across... or to just have some fun. "

Simple reflectional symmetry tool which lets children/teachers put colours into four quadrants creating reflecting patterns.

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.

"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.
