What makes even numbers special? What makes odd numbers… well… odd? Help these farmers plant their fruit trees in rows and patterns, and see what happens when we add, subtract and multiply different combinations of these numbers together! Use this low threshold, high ceiling task to explore the properties of even and odd numbers.

This game applies students' knowledge of location on a grid and practises directional language. Students develop a strategy to make effective moves, using two dice, counters and a 10 by 10 grid.

• TLF-IDA004316

The focus of this activity is for students demonstrate a systematic approach to trialing and recording possible solutions. Students are encouraged to explain the method they used, compare solutions and prove they have found all the possible solutions.

This activity allows students to develop an understanding of decimals and how they connect to fractions and the area model. It enables them to make comparisons between decimals and their sizes and build a greater understanding of what makes a larger decimal and smaller decimal. The decimats provide them with a representational ...

This lesson helps students explore different shape transformations and describe symmetry in objects and images.

• TLF-IDA004345

The focus of this activity is to discover the language that students are using to describe the features of shapes. Although students may know the names of many shapes, and may know the difference between a square and a circle, the description of why these shapes are different may not be mathematically accurate. Listen to ...
