The Teaching Tool

Easiteach Maths provides you with a whole-class teaching tool that contains lots of familiar Maths resources (such as number lines, number grids, place-value cards and graphs) that will really help you to deliver the whole-class or group elements of your Maths lessons.

The resources are flexible, so that you can create many different examples and address a wide range of numeracy objectives. Because you can manage all of the resources from one central location, you no longer have to spend time fiddling around with Blu-Tac or sorting place-value cards into order. This means you are free to focus completely on the teaching and learning taking place.

Number Grids

Each cell in a number grid can be coloured, and the numbers can be moved to different cells or removed from the grid. You can create number grids of different sizes and shapes to address key numeracy objectives at a variety of levels.

Number lines can be custom-made in seconds, using whole numbers or decimals. Each number can be moved around both on and off the line. You can make lines using negative numbers, or place fractions onto a line.

These place-value cards are large enough for the whole class to see; move them together and watch them stack up to form two, three or four-digit numbers. Each constituent part can be painted a different colour to highlight its value. Decimal place-value cards are also available.
