"Making Numbers Make Sense!"

 

These programs by the Institute of Education are part of an exciting new series developed at the University of London, combining the skills of experts in primary education and computing. They are designed to bring entertainment to early learning.

 

Colourful, original and fun to use, they take a modern approach to maths to help children make sense of numbers. TILES looks at numbers in terms of area (How large?) and FENCE in terms of perimeter (How far around?). Using them, children come to understand how numbers really work.
