Sue's card game reinforces some essential basic skills for counting-on and 'change from a pound' exercises. She also monitors the whole-school Maths Challenge to see which children are struggling with mental maths. Sophie uses the mini-computer Roamers to do some work with angles, distance and estimation. She also uses art on the walls and in the class to help with times tables. Elaine has adapted all sorts of playground games to add a maths element, and has made some games for wet play days.
