More number pyramids
When number pyramids have a sequence on the bottom layer, some interesting patterns emerge...

Last biscuit
Can you find a strategy that ensures you get to take the last biscuit in this game?

Square coordinates
A tilted square is a square with no horizontal sides. Can you devise a general instruction for the construction of a square when you are given just one of its sides?

Square it
Players take it in turns to choose a dot on the grid. The winner is the first to have four dots that can be joined to form a square.

Parallelogram it
Players take it in turns to choose a dot on the grid. The winner is the first to have four dots that can be joined to form a parallelogram.

Semi-regular tessellations
Semi-regular tessellations combine two or more different regular polygons to fill the plane. Can you find all the semi-regular tessellations?




Shifting times tables
Can you find a way to identify times tables after they have been shifted up or down?


Triangles in circles
Can you find triangles on a 9-point circle? Can you work out their angles?

Nine colours
Can you use small coloured cubes to make a 3 by 3 by 3 cube so that each face of the bigger cube contains one of each colour?

Subtended angles
What is the relationship between the angle at the centre and the angles at the circumference, for angles which stand on the same arc? Can you prove it?

4 dom
Use these four dominoes to make a square that has the same number of dots on each side.


Charlie's delightful machine
Here is a machine with four coloured lights. Can you develop a strategy to work out the rules controlling each light?

Frogs
How many moves does it take to swap over some red and blue frogs? Do you have a method?

Stars
Can you work out what step size to take to ensure you visit all the dots on the circle?

Beelines
Is there a relationship between the coordinates of the endpoints of a line and the number of grid squares it crosses?



Number pyramids
Try entering different sets of numbers in the number pyramids. How does the total at the top change?


Finding factors
Can you find the hidden factors which multiply together to produce each quadratic expression?

Fruity totals
In this interactivity each fruit has a hidden value. Can you deduce what each one is worth?

Treasure hunt
Can you find a reliable strategy for choosing coordinates that will locate the treasure in the minimum number of guesses?

Diamond collector
Collect as many diamonds as you can by drawing three straight lines.


The remainders game
Play this game and see if you can figure out the computer's chosen number.



Less is more
Use your knowledge of place value to try to win this game. How will you maximise your score?

More less is more
In each of these games, you will need a little bit of luck and your knowledge of place value to develop a winning strategy.

Number lines in disguise
Some of the numbers have fallen off Becky's number line. Can you figure out what they were?


Factors and multiples game
A game in which players take it in turns to choose a number. Can you block your opponent?

In the bag
Can you guess the colours of the 10 marbles in the bag? Can you develop an effective strategy for reaching 1000 points in the least number of rounds?

Reaction timer
This problem offers you two ways to test reactions - use them to investigate your ideas about speeds of reaction.

What numbers can we make now?
Imagine we have four bags containing numbers from a sequence. What numbers can we make now?

Your number is...
Think of a number and follow the machine's instructions... I know what your number is! Can you explain how I know?


Your number was...
Think of a number and follow my instructions. Tell me your answer, and I'll tell you what you started with! Can you explain how I know?

The Number Jumbler
The Number Jumbler can always work out your chosen symbol. Can you work out how?

A little light thinking
Here is a machine with four coloured lights. Can you make two lights switch on at once? Three lights? All four lights?

Rhombus it
Players take it in turns to choose a dot on the grid. The winner is the first to have four dots that can be joined to form a rhombus.

Isosceles triangles
Draw some isosceles triangles with an area of $9$cm$^2$ and a vertex at (20,20). If all the vertices must have whole number coordinates, how many is it possible to draw?

Remainders
I'm thinking of a number. My number is both a multiple of 5 and a multiple of 6. What could my number be?

Right angles
Can you make a right-angled triangle on this peg-board by joining up three points round the edge?

At right angles
Can you decide whether two lines are perpendicular or not? Can you do this without drawing them?

Cyclic quadrilaterals
Draw some quadrilaterals on a 9-point circle and work out the angles. Is there a theorem?

Tilted squares
It's easy to work out the areas of most squares that we meet, but what if they were tilted?

Tea cups
Place the 16 different combinations of cup/saucer in this 4 by 4 arrangement so that no row or column contains more than one cup or saucer of the same colour.


Multiplication arithmagons
Can you find the values at the vertices when you know the values on the edges of these multiplication arithmagons?
