Hi secondary school maths teachers 👋 I've decided to start a thread of online resources and virtual manipulatives for you also. I will add to this list as I get suggestions. Again I've included curricular areas and suggested a class level. See below! #edshareie#JuniorCycleMaths
This virtual manipulative for helping to teach Pi is excellent. Useful for 1st - 3rd year. It is an interactive demonstration showing how pi relates to the circumference of a circle. The area of a circle π r2 is also explained. visnos.com/demos/pi
Trigonometry. This polygon explorer is useful for teaching angles. Suitable for 1st - 3rd year. The virtual protractor allows the students to practice measuring interior and exterior angles. visnos.com/demos/polygon-…
Linear functions (online graph plotter). Suitable for 2nd/ 3rd years. Allows students to graph linear functions, and can be used to identify and interpret roots, intercepts and turning points of quadratic functions graphically. transum.org/Maths/Activity…
Linear functions. Suitable for 2nd/3rd year. A series of 9 exercises which require students to graph linear inequalities. These are excellent!! transum.org/software/SW/St…
Linear Functions. Suitable for 2nd/3rd year. A series of videos on finding the slope of a line. Could be used as a quick revision resource.
Venn diagrams (two circles). Suitable for 1st years. Interactive tool which allows students to generate clear and easy to use two circle Venn Diagrams.
General Maths. Suitable for all years. Click this link to copy this google slide. You can then copy and paste these maths manipulatives into PowerPoint presentations etc. for use as you please! docs.google.com/presentation/d…
Geometry. Suitable for all years. Free online math tool for graphing/ geometry. Useful for teaching about the circle, angles and transformations. geogebra.org/geometry
Angles. Suitable for 1st year. Free online game where students have to estimate the angle shown. Could be used as a warm up activity or early finisher activity.
All maths areas. Suitable for 1st - 3rd year. This is a series of 25 secondary school level maths games including ones that focus on algebra, geometry and developing problem-solving skills.
Negative numbers. Suitable for 1st years. This game requires the student to perform multiplication and division with negative and positive numbers and understand why operations involving 2 negatives will produce a positive solution. mangahigh.com/en-gb/games/pi…
Reflections, rotations and problem solving. Suitable for 1st - 3rd year. A series of games that get progressively more difficult from simple shape rotations to reflecting a shape on a coordinate axes given only the equation of the mirror line. mangahigh.com/en-gb/games/tr…
Problem solving. Suitable for 1st - 6th year. This is EXCELLENT. A series visually compelling puzzles of varying difficulty. Some involve logic, others involve the application of theorems. You can select one based on the topic you are currently teaching.
Algebra revision skills tasks. Suitable for Junior Cert Higher Level and Leaving Cert Ordinary Level. Free but requires signing up to @tesResources. Credit for the resource is @onitmaths#edshareie@JctMaths
Hi teachers and parents 👋 I have complied a short list of useful online maths tools and virtual manipulatives to assist you with distance learning. I have included the curriculum area and suggested what class group they would be most suitable for. See below! #mathschat#edchatie
This website allows you to create a graph. Useful for 5th/6th class. Children can create pie charts, bar charts, etc. adding in their own data and designing and labelling the X and Y axis themselves. Charts are easily saved.
Online protractor. Useful for 5th/6th class. The teacher can use screen sharing to how to use a protractor. Children who do not have a protractor at home can use this to measure angles.
