Can You Decide?

Starter of The Day Transum Mathematics Topics

Miss B., Folkestone
I like this but would like to speed up the time. Is it possible for me to change the time between questions? I know I've changed times on some of your other starters.
Transum,
Speed it up! Your class must be really quick (well done to them). Speed controls have now been added.

Educational Technology on Amazon

Teacher, do your students have access to computers such as tablets, iPads or Laptops? This page was really designed for projection on a whiteboard but if you really want the students to have access to it here is a concise URL for a version of this page without the comments:

Transum.org/go/?Start=July29

However it would be better to assign one of the student interactive activities below.

Laptops In Lessons

Here is the URL which will take them to a related student activity.
