Free Digital Maths Games and Interactive Resources

Recently, I have been updating my collection of purposeful interactive websites for my learners. These websites offer free resources for different maths concept development and practice. Here are a few of my favourites:

Maths Games https://nz.mathgames.com/ is a fantastic free website offering interactive maths activities for primary students. It covers various topics, including number knowledge, strategies and strands. Additionally, the website provides video explanations that help students learn from their mistakes. While Math Games offers a premium option, there are still plenty of valuable resources available at no cost.

Mathantics https://mathantics.com/  is a collection of lessons created specifically for teaching math concepts through animated videos. These videos are visually appealing and easy for our young learners to understand. Not only can students benefit from watching these videos, but teachers can also use them to refresh their own understanding of a topic.

Maths Is Fun https://www.mathsisfun.com/ (Free with a subscription option) is a user-friendly website that offers interactive games, puzzles and explanations of math concepts. These resources can be used as a modelling tool for Number Talks or guided lessons. 

BBC Bitesize  - https://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/subjects/z826n39 (free) provides a diverse collection of interactive math games and activities suitable for primary students. While some resources are available for the UK only, the website still offers great content for New Zealand classrooms, including a variety of free basic facts games.

By incorporating these interactive websites into your classroom program, particularly during independent purposeful practice, teachers can effectively enhance students' math skills while keeping them engaged and motivated.

Have fun learning and teaching maths!
