This set of six mathematics books from SMILE caters for a wide range of ability and ages from National Curriculum level 2 to level 7. The activities cover aspects of algebra, multiplication, ratio and using spreadsheets. All include teachers' notes and photocopiable activity sheets.

The activities are organised as teachers' notes and resource sheets.
The teachers' notes, offer advice on appropriate ways of using the activity and any additional equipment required. Ideas to enrich students' mathematical thinking are also included.

The resource sheets can be photocopied for students to use.

Many of the activities are suitable for whole class lessons and contain much scope for discussion. However, all the materials have been designed to contain sufficiently clear instructions to be accessible to students with minimal teacher support. This makes them ideal for use within whole class differentiated topic work as the teacher is left free to discuss structural issues with individuals or groups as they arise.

Full answers are given for each activity.

HEALTH and SAFETY
Any use of a resource that includes a practical activity must include a risk assessment. Please note that collections may contain ARCHIVE resources, which were developed at a much earlier date. Since that time there have been significant changes in the rules and guidance affecting laboratory practical work. Further information is provided in our Health and Safety guidance.
