Designing maths

Designing maths is part of the Maths for Living Series, developed for use with the CGEA (1996-2001) and supports numeracy and mathematics learning outcomes. The resource is suitable to use for the module Numeracy and Mathematics II in CGEA (2002-2006). The CD introduces different mathematical concepts in the context of planning a garden, with a flower bed, cubby house, veggie patch and so on. Activities include drawing to scale, calculating perimeters, working out volume and working with angles (in constructing the cubby house roof). The information is clearly presented and is followed by some practical activities for learners to complete. Results for these activities are given and can be printed off and there are also 'quizzes' at the end of each section where learners can use what they have learned in different contexts. The resource is well presented with a variety of activity type and presentation used, and voice overs offered for most explanations and instructions. A useful resource to support delivery maths within the CGEA.
