National Centre for Excellence in the Teaching of Mathematics – The materials below are specifically for teachers dealing with older grades.
NumberSense Mathematics Programme –https://www.numbersense.co.za/ – It has been created to support children’s development of a robust sense of number and deep understanding of mathematics. The K – 7 programme is responsive to the developmental needs of children, informed by current research on how children learn mathematics and provides a comprehensive mathematics solution. Most of it is free to use but some material is available for purchase only.
Numeracy Ninjas – http://www.numeracyninjas.org/ – A whole-school numeracy intervention run in Key Stage 3 (Gr. 7-9) mathematics lessons. Students complete a 5 min. skills test including: 30 questions – 10 each of mental numeracy calculation strategies, times tables and key numeracy skills. There was a minor interruption with downloading resources on the website so they set up a temporary folder through Facebook.
PBS Learning Media – K-8 Mathematics ranges from counting cardinal numbers to linear equations and functions. Students can review the calculation of area, find the area of combined shapes and can be assessed on their understanding using Khan Academy. Similar units can be created on topics such as lines and angles, probability models, and the multiplication and division of fractions. Make sure to use the filter to isolate the right grade.
The Centre for Education in Mathematics and Computing – This course covers the topics typically taught in Canadian Grade 7 and 8 Mathematics curricula and, in some instances, extends ideas beyond grade level.
Representing and Comparing Numbers – Part A (Lessons 1–7): Topics include representing and comparing positive rational numbers (integers, fractions, and decimals), finding multiples and factors of positive integers, and determining the least common multiple (LCM) and the greatest common factor (GCF) of a pair of positive integers. Part B (Lessons 8–12): Topics include representing negative fractions and negative decimals, comparing the values of any two rational numbers, exponential notation, and using factor trees and prime factorizations to find the LCM or the GCF of a pair of positive integers.
Operations – Part A (Lessons 1–11): Topics include adding and subtracting rational numbers, multiplying and dividing a whole number by a positive rational number, and evaluating expressions using the order of operations. Part B (Lessons 12–19): Topics include multiplying, and dividing integers, fractions and decimal numbers, approximating square roots of positive integers, and evaluating expressions that include exponents using the order of operations.
Ratios, Rates and Proportions – Part A (Lessons 1–5): Topics include writing and interpreting ratios; finding equivalent ratios; converting between fractions, decimals, and percents; converting between units of measurement; and solving problems involving unit rates. Part B (Lessons 6–10): Topics include recognizing proportional situations in word problems, tables and graphs; connecting unit relates to proportional relationships and their representations in tables, graphs and equations; and fractional percents and percents greater than 100 percent.
Interactive Library – Includes “Explore This” guided explorations to manipulate mathematical objects and “Check Your Understanding” questions to answer with feedback. Perform a keyword search and/or display only the applications from a given strand, unit or lesson.
The Centre for Education in Mathematics and Computing – This course covers the topics typically taught in Canadian Grade 9 Mathematics curricula and, in some instances, extends ideas beyond grade level.
