Pair Games

***The classroom is a hive of activity with pupils pitting their wits against each other***


  • Self differentiating...

  • Self-marking...

  • Pupils challenging each other at their own level...

  • Children challenging their parents at home...

 

Covering exactly the same range of topics as the skill checks, the pair games allow pupils to pit their wits against their classmates, challenging each other with examples of their own creation, in the area of maths the teacher wants them to consolidate. The scoring system is specially designed to ensure that children are fair in setting realistic challenges for their partners: if their partner fails to get a question right, it is given back to the pupil who devised the question and a wrong answer here means a lost point!  The pair games can also be set as a homework activity with children challenging their parents.

The online materials are specially designed to be easy to view and use on computer, tablet, or mobile device.
