Numberella — lockdown lifesaver


Numberella — an award-winning maths game — is the brainchild of Alexander FL Newberry, a UK maths teacher specialising in accelerating numeracy. T e game was developed in a live teaching environment, in response to challenges faced when working with children who were dismissive of traditional pedago- gies. T e ideas contained within the game were all trialled by children and anything they didn’t like wasn’t included. T is is why youngsters love playing Numberella — in a way, they designed it. In these diffi cult times, where


normal learning structures have gone out of the window, anyone involved in education needs a product that helps them engage kids. Whether you’re a parent stranded at home with children tired of yet another Zoom lesson or a teacher with a group of disorientated ‘key worker’ kids (some of whom you may not know very well), Numberella is guaranteed to grab their attention and put a smile on their faces. Numberella is proven in UK school


trials to improve maths outcomes, and is available in three levels, which support key stages one, two and three. Once you’ve arranged the card decks and familiarised your- self with the rules, it’s a lesson in a box which requires very little prep time. An added bonus is that you can

use one box for kids of diff erent ages (just default to the level appropriate for the youngest), so it’s perfect for unexpected student groupings. Game time is fl exible too, from fi ve minutes to an hour. Take the strain out of maths


teaching — let Numberella do the hard work and keep everyone smiling in these tricky times.
