We think this is one of the most exciting developments with the new curriculum. Students initially can use SCRATCH to create games which are mathematically driven. This gives a huge opportunity for Maths discovery through making. This approach is really well suited to the Y6 and KS3 curriculum.
Games I have made with student groups have included:
Probability Horse Racing
Fraction Jigsaws
Ratio Building Games
Bearing Games
Beautiful Fractal Art Games
We are working with a wide community to create resources for this type of Maths and ICT teaching. If you would like to be part of this project please contact us.
