The Number Gym has moved to
www.numbergym.co.uk

This free website is dedicated to the creation of excellence in educational software. This first offering is designed to develop basic numeracy skills. Intended for use in schools and at home, these fun activities will increase a child's mental arithmetic abilities leading to a greater confidence in tackling future mathematical tasks. The emphasis is on active participation rather than passive viewing of Flash presentations.

Currently our software comprises three major areas:

1. Number Line activities

Rather than supplying tedious sets of random sums, we use Number Line activities to explore the relationship between moving left and right, counting on and back with addition and subtraction.

2. Number Grid activities

Learning the multiplication tables is made fun by testing yourself against your previous best score and the clock. When it gets too easy doing them in order, we mix them up!

3. Number to Words activities

In the final area, we encourage the child to decode larger numbers, both numerically and verbally by first saying the number aloud and then dragging and dropping the corresponding words into a sentence bar where the correct answer explodes!

Each area's activities, in the full version, can be customised by a teacher or parent to suit a particular class or child's current abilities.

Please try out each activity area and let us have your constructive feedback.

Please send your feedback to numbergym@yahoo.co.uk

In this way you can assist us to reach the standard of excellence we seek to achieve in these areas before expanding our software to cover other major areas of Primary School Mathematics.

Thank you for your support.
