Welcome to
the Keyed-in site! This comprehensive and unique mathematics
resource will provide you with a varied and highly motivating
set of interactive resources that you will find invaluable.
Keyed-in is a weekly magazine. Every Monday morning,
during term time, a new magazine will be automatically
available as part of your subscription. Among the many
features of the magazine are:
Ed's puzzle
page - each week a puzzle is presented that should be
fun to solve. Pupils may click to see a hint if they don't
know how to get started. The solution is also provided.
Mental maths
- pupils can try these activities
over and over again for practice because the questions will
change. All answers are marked immediately on the click
of a button.
The first type of activity is given in two versions:
In the test version, they have to answer each question
within 15 seconds.
In the game version, they can take as long as they
like for each question but there are bonus points for
finding the right answer quickly.
There is also a variety of activities based on number grids.
Check regularly for updates.
Interactive worksheets - these are based on the
Framework for teaching mathematics. A help button for
each question provides two levels of support. Answers
can be keyed in for immediate feedback.
Check regularly for updates.
SATs practice
- this popular section is available from January to May.
Practice papers in the SATs style are offered in interactive
form so that pupils receive immediate feedback on their
answers. You can still view the section by clicking the
link below.
Internet
quest - the idea is to help pupils develop the skills
needed to use the internet to search for factual information
relating to mathematics. Each week a link to another site
where pupils can start their search is given. Answers are
checked automatically and a response is generated to give
pupils immediate feedback.
Great mathematicians
- a different mathematician is featured each week.
The purpose is to provide some information about the characters
that have contributed to the subject and to appreciate their
accomplishments. The language level and the description
of the mathematics is kept to a level suitable for pupils
in KS3.
Fun with
numbers - this section contains a wide variety of interactive
puzzles and games that help pupils to develop confidence
in their number skills.
The serious
stuff - the questions in this section require greater
knowledge of syllabus content and are probably best suited
to pupils in Years 8 and 9. An immediate response is given
when pupils key in their answers.
A quick
quiz - a light-hearted quiz suitable for most pupils
in Key Stage 3. Again, pupils will be able to see immediately
whether they have the right answer.
Strategy
games - a logical approach is needed for this section.
New games are added regularly and there is already a wide
variety to choose from.
