Mathematics classroom resources

An example of a maths classroom site (weebly)

We have selected relevant material from MIT's introductory courses to support students as they study and educators as they teach the AP® Calculus curriculum.

This unit gives a historical background to mathematics education in South Africa, to outcomes-based education and to the national curriculum statement for mathematics. The traditional approach to teaching mathematics is then contrasted with an approach to teaching mathematics that focuses on 'doing' mathematics, and mathematics as a science of pattern and order, in which learners actively explore mathematical ideas in a conducive classroom environment.

The aim of SAIDE ACEMaths project was to pilot a collaborative process for the selection, adaptation and use of OER materials for teacher education programmes in South Africa. Over a period of two years we adapted, piloted and revised a set of materials on the teaching and learning of maths for teacher education. These are now available for downloading FOR FREE in two formats - for printing (PDF), and for adaptation (Word). See the ACEMaths Module to have a look.

SUPERB! Place the numbers on the number line. Loads of levels. Negative numbers and decimals. Play against the clock for a score. My class's favourite warm up, useful throughout school from year 3 to year 6.

This site has got interactive applets that makes it great to use with IWB's. Covers most of the basic concepts. The big ideas of algebraic thinking involve representation, proportional reasoning, balance, meaning of variable, patterns and functions, inductive reasoning, and deductive reasoning. Greenes and Findell (1998):

Math Central is an Internet service for mathematics students and teachers. It is available in English, French, and Spanish.
