Description

Maths Circus Act 3 follows on from Maths Circus Act 1 and Maths Circus Act 2 and offers twelve further puzzles at two degrees of challenge (Basic and Advanced). There are five Basic levels of each puzzle, particularly aimed at children in the first two years of schooling, though these may also serve as an introduction for older children. The five Advanced levels are aimed at middle and upper primary, and right through to adult. The hardest of these levels will challenge children of any age. ContentMaths Circus Act 3 contains 120 individual tasks, twice the number in each of the earlier packages, providing practise and enhancement for a wide range of skills.

Practice addition and multiplication with the jugglers and the clowns. Investigate direction and angle when crossing the river, and at higher levels explore compass bearings, time and vectors in very simple ways. Controlling the elevator involves positive and negative numbers.Several puzzles even include simple programming - planning a sequence of moves in advance, and executing them later on.Teacher Controls and Special NeedsTeachers can control which puzzles and levels are available, and can inspect or print pupils' progress.Teachers can also arrange for the software to be driven by a touch screen, or a single or double switch, instead of a mouse.
