Workshop ideas for maths
Help build your students' confidence in working with numbers. Teaching students how to apply maths in everyday life helps them to understand the importance of the subject. Interactive maths workshops, led by experienced companies, allow your young learners to explore mathematical concepts through hands-on activities and collaborative problem-solving. Whether you are looking for a fun introduction to maths for KS1 children, to develop a love of maths in children starting secondary school, or something more challenging for more able students who may be aiming to read maths at university, you will find a suitable mathematics workshop below.
Whether delving into the intricacies of arithmetic, uncovering patterns in geometry, or grappling with the logic of algebra, workshops often make use of equipment or materials that you do not have the budget to own in school. They also bring a fresh way of explaining a subject that will help make the link to what you have been teaching in class, even to other curriculum subjects. Maths workshops can incorporate real-world context, so that students to see the practical relevance of the maths they're studying and how it connects to their everyday lives.
