IWB Mathematics Resources for Primary and Secondary Mathematics

The interactive paper pool game provides an opportunity for students to develop their understanding of ratio, proportion, greatest common denominator and least common multiple. This investigation includes student resources for the Paper Pool project, preparation notes, answers, and a holistic-by-category scoring rubric with guidelines for how it can be used to assess the project. Samples of two students' work and a teacher's comments accompany the suggested rubric.

The Gaps and Misconceptions Tool is an interactive, web-based diagnostic tool to support teachers in dealing with children's gaps and misconceptions in maths. The Gaps and Misconceptions Tool deals with three key areas that the QCA regularly reports are areas of weakness exhibited by KS1 and KS2 children in end of KS SATs and optional QCA tests: subtraction, division and FDPRP (fractions, decimals, percentages, ratio and proportion). The Gaps and Misconceptions Tool includes guidance papers on what makes these areas difficult to teach.
