We’re very excited to announce our Countdown to the Christmas Holidays! With only three weeks to go until Scottish schools start their Christmas holidays, we'll be sharing seasonal maths inspired activities every day from 1 to 20 December 2022, to make the wait a little more fun.
We'll be sharing the activities every day on our social media channel every morning on Twitterand on Facebook, as well as here on the website. You can look forward to a mix of puzzles, art and crafts, games, and more.
The activities will be for a mix of ages and will be most suitable for Early Years to Lower Secondary School, though older children may also enjoy taking part.
It's Spring in Edinburgh means, which means the return of the Edinburgh Science Festival (30 March - 14 April)! This years theme is Shaping the Future, and we've browsed through the programme to pick out some of our maths highlights for you.
To mark World Meteorological Day (23 March), we are delighted to share a guest post from Professor Sylvia Knight, Head of Education at the Royal Meteorological Society, to introduce their new Climate Change Concept tool and show how teachers can use it to support maths in the curriculum.
