Creative Activities in Mathematics bundle

Problem-based learning is a powerful alternative to drill-and-practice or skills-based learning, especially within mathematics.

The Creative Activities in Mathematics series provides a wealth of investigations and open-ended active learning activities, designed to engage students with mathematics and develop their problem-solving, collaboration and mathematical skills.

The three titles in the series provide a variety of class activities suitable for students from lower primary to middle secondary, along with teaching notes and staged lesson plans. Each activity is a whole-class investigation with open-ended answers that takes a particular scenario and develops over multiple levels. This enables it to be used both at different year levels and with students of differing ability in the same class. All activities are firmly grounded in the Australian Curriculum: Mathematics.
