Mult-e-Maths New Framework Edition

Creative, flexible mathematics activities for the interactive whiteboard.

Mult-e-Maths New Framework Edition Teaching CD-ROMs are specifically designed to make use of the features offered by an interactive whiteboard to support whole-class teaching; it also includes ideas for independent pupil activities.

Based around objectives from the renewed Primary Framework for mathematics, Mult-e-Maths New Framework Edition is designed to fit in well with your planning.

There are starters to review previously learnt material, and lesson ideas that introduce new topics and offer plenary material for assessment and consolidation.

For even more flexibility, the Lesson Builder feature allows you to personalise resources and organise lessons to suit the needs of your class.

The renewed Primary Framework asked schools to consider five key areas. See how Mult-e-Maths can help your school to implement the Framework recommendations.

Encouraging flexibility in the organisation of the curriculum and the structure of mathematics lessons: The new Lesson Builder featured in each Teaching CD-ROM allows you to personalise resources and organise lessons to suit the needs of your class, helping you respond to pupils' progress.

Structuring teaching and learning over sequences of lessons as well as within lessons: The Planning CD-ROM adds Mult-e-Maths to the structure suggested by the Primary Strategy, helping your school implement the renewed Framework by choosing sections to adapt and embed.

Raising expectations for all children: Organised into the seven new strands across each year group, Mult-e-Maths builds progression across topics and years.

Making more effective use of assessment: Alongside the renewed Framework, Mult-e-Maths incorporates suggestions for assessment, careful questioning and differentiation into every activity.

Broadening and strengthening pedagogy: Mult-e-Maths provides visual and meaningful resources with clear teaching notes for the more challenging areas of mathematics.

"I regularly use Mult-e-Maths as a visual and interactive way to introduce or develop an area of mathematics. The children love to come to the whiteboard and get involved and the innovative activities often become the basis of further investigation."

Richard Graham. Year 6 Teacher, John Ball Primary School, London

"These materials are well written and easily accessed. They are extremely visual and make the concepts very clear to pupils. Also, children like using the interactive whiteboard, so being able to use these resources for whole-class demonstration in this way does hold their attention and encourages them to learn."

Teaching and Learning

"The Mult-e-Maths teaching activities are particularly useful in shape and space work - especially in rotating 3D shapes. Children engage well with the competitive games in the number units and the problem solving material is challenging with imaginative contexts."

Class teacher, Hermitage Primary School, Crewe

"The teaching activities are ideal for whiteboard presentation. There are good questions, variety and logical presentation."

Assistant Headteacher, St Peter's CE Primary School Leeds

"The pupil response to the software can only be described as excellent. Pupils were keen to be involved when the teacher was using the software on the interactive whiteboard and they were highly motivated when doing so. The small groups using the program did so in a sensible way and needed very little if any adult intervention. A teacher who was observing a lesson being taught using the software commented in her evaluation about how 'on task' the children seemed to be and how 'clearly motivated' they were. On questioning the children we also discovered that the software did help them to understand concepts as it explained them in a better way."

"The interactive nature of Mult-e-Maths is excellent. Activities are clearly linked to objectives and can be used to support other resources as part of a lesson (starter / plenary) or as a lesson in their own right. They are very flexible. The activities are easy to use and clearly show mathematical ideas and concepts visually. They are engaging and easily modified for differentiation. Great for those children that learn visually or have a short attention span."

Ian Simpson. Class Teacher, Intake Primary School, Doncaster

"Mult-e-Maths is ideal for whiteboard presentation. There are good questions, variety and logical presentation."

Mr G Vlaeminke, Assistant Headteacher, St Peter's CE Primary School Leeds

"Resources are often hard to find especially for Measures, Shape, Space and Handling data. Mult-e-Maths activities are very clear and nicely differentiated."

Dr Andy Ross, Maths Subject Leader, Uphill Primary School, North Somerset

"The visual images provided help children to 'see' the concepts clearly."

Mrs Gates. Deputy Headteacher, East Rainton Primary School

"Mult-e-Maths offers powerful support for schools seeking to embed ICT in the curriculum. Mult-e-Maths is so easy to use that it becomes part of everyday teaching and learning almost automatically. Mult-e-Maths certainly helps me to demonstrate my abilities as a teacher to best effect."

Gossey Lane Primary School, Birmingham

Problem solving lies at the heart of mathematics but children don't always find it easy. They need to be introduced to a range of problems and taught the skills to solve them. Mult-e-Maths teachers have a great way to do this effectively using their interactive whiteboards. Mult-e-Maths contains a wealth of child-friendly problems to interest children and stimulate collaboration, so that children and teachers can explore strategies and solutions together.

Mult-e-Maths is designed for the interactive whiteboard, but not simply as a 'show' for children to sit back and watch. It ensures that the teacher, not the IWB, is in charge of the pace and the content of the lesson. With Mult-e-Maths, teachers can stimulate and motivate all children by using modelling and questioning, and by getting children to predict, manipulate, try things out, explain and discuss. The enjoyment of Mult-e-Maths comes from the activity, discussion and communication that it engenders – the enjoyment that accompanies learning.
