SMILE Cards

The mathematics on SMILE cards is presented in the form of practical activities, games and investigations. They encourage an independent approach and are suitable for students from Key Stage 2 to 4.

The cards originally formed a complete individualised mathematics scheme. The cards were organised so that each student followed their own path through the work which was recorded on a network.

The Activity List identifies the card number and title, the attainment target, an abbreviation of the topic and the level of each card.

To find a particular topic search the Activity List for the appropriate term to locate the Card Number. Then search for the card in the appropriate file.

(To search the Activity List: Open the pdf document, press CTRL and F, type in the appropriate term. The search box will then give you the number of times the term appears in the document and also highlight where it appears.)

Many of the topics on the cards are also available in the Wealth of Worksheets collection.

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.
