Starting Maths300 Kit

Starting Maths300 & Tasks is an excellent way to begin constructing a Working Mathematically curriculum. The Maths300 lessons support teachers in modelling how a mathematician works. Each task is an invitation to the students to apply the model for themselves.

Each task comes in a sturdy press-seal bag and contains a laminated problem solving card and enough equipment for two students to explore the problem.

Tasks included are listed below in the following way.
