Maths Inquiry Projects

Authentic Inquiry Maths: The Laws of Maths - The Commutative Law. We have started our year inquiring into "How the World Works", looking at how a knowledge of the laws of science helps us to understand the world in which we live.And, of course, a knowledge of the Laws of Mathematics is central to this understanding.So, we started with the Commutative Law.

With this provocation, I wanted to see what the kids knew about addition, the relationship between addends and how the Commutative Law works.So I asked them to show that this statement was true using 3 different methods.

Whatever the size or phase of your school you are likely to meet some highly able mathematicians at some point in your career.

Supporting Highly Able Mathematicians - Teachers

If you are a highly competent and confident mathematician yourself, these students will be a challenge and often a delight. If you teach maths but are not particularly confident then meeting the needs of highly able pupils can be quite a challenge. Below are some ideas to prompt your thinking, and links to helpful information and resources. There are different ways in which teachers can meet the needs of their most able mathematicians. The most prevalent in UK schools is through acceleration - pupils move through the school curriculum faster than others, often taking assessments or examinations early.

Maths Maps

Thanks for visiting! I am excited to introduce you to my new project idea that I hope will result in some engaging content for our classes. It is collaborative in the same way the Interesting Ways resources are and I will need your help to make it a success. Elevator Pitch Using Google Maps.Maths activities in different places around the world.One location, one maths topic, one map.Activities explained in placemarks in Google Maps.Placemarks geotagged to the maths it refers to. Some background Four years ago I created Google Earth resources for the classroom and posted them to the GE Community Forum. The only issue with Google Earth is that it is restrictive in two ways. Luckily Google Maps has caught up and using the collaborative features I can now invite other teachers and educators to help build on these resources. How can you contribute?

The Romans were active in trade and commerce, and from the time of learning to write they needed a way to indicate numbers.

Roman Numerals

The system they developed lasted many centuries, and still sees some specialized use today. Roman numerals traditionally indicate the order of rulers or ships who share the same name (i.e. Queen Elizabeth II). THE SECRET LIVES OF NUMBERS. The authors conducted an exhaustive empirical study, with the aid of custom software, public search engines and powerful statistical techniques, in order to determine the relative popularity of every integer between 0 and one million.

THE SECRET LIVES OF NUMBERS

The resulting information exhibits an extraordinary variety of patterns which reflect and refract our culture, our minds, and our bodies. For example, certain numbers, such as 212, 486, 911, 1040, 1492, 1776, 68040, or 90210, occur more frequently than their neighbors because they are used to denominate the phone numbers, tax forms, computer chips, famous dates, or television programs that figure prominently in our culture.
