About Nrich
We believe that successful mathematicians understand curriculum concepts and are fluent in mathematical skills and procedures, and can also solve problems, explain and justify their thinking, and have a positive attitude towards mathematics and to themselves as learners of mathematics.
With this in mind, we offer rich mathematical activities which aim to nurture curious, resourceful and confident learners of mathematics.

Here is an interactive you might like to use to try out your ideas. Click on a domino to rotate it. Use the white x to move a domino around. Use these four dominoes to make a square that has the same number of dots on each side.
4 Dom Use these four dominoes to make a square that has the same number of dots on each side. ... This problem provides a great opportunity to focus on key problem-solving skills (e.g. trial and improvement) as the level of challenge is provided by there not being an obvious way to solve it, rather than from the number or calculation content ...
This time we still used the domino with a total of 10 (6+4=10), but now added a 2 which made our new total number of 12. The domino with the 2 also had a number of 6, which makes a total of 8. So 12-8=4. There was a domino with a 4 and 3 that makes 7, so 12-7=5. Then I used the remaining domino that had a 5 and 1 to complete the square.

NRICH - 4 Dom. Can you arrange these dominoes to make this square so that each side has the same number of dots? Dominoes are such a versatile resource. The discussion of the thinking involved in solving this tricky problem, and the use of appropriate vocabulary, is a good reason to do it. And there are tons of similar problems to be made up too.

Harry, counted all the dots on the double-3 down dominoes, so we got 30. But we needed 8 dots on each row and 8 x 4 = 32. So we knew we had to put 2 dots in the ...
A collaboration between the Mathematics and Education Faculties, NRICH focuses on developing problem-solving, supporting every stage of school education with free online resources for ages 3-19 and their teachers.

The Problem-solving Classroom By NRICH Primary Team and Jenny Earl This article forms part of our Problem-solving Classroom Feature, exploring how to create a space in which mathematical problem solving can flourish. At NRICH, we believe that there are four main aspects to consider: • Highlighting key problem-solving skills
The problem-solving process can usually be thought of as having four stages: Stage 1 - Getting started: in this stage, teachers can support children by offering strategies to help them engage with the problem. These could be prompts such as telling a partner what they think the problem is about or helping them understand the problem by ...
This first blog provides an introduction to problem solving with NRICH, and explores how important it is to choose appropriate tasks. The second will explore how you can structure the problem-solving process, and embed problem solving into every school day. Becoming a confident and competent problem solver is a complex process that requires a ...
An additional way to use NRICH solutions as a teacher might be during a staff meeting to facilitate conversations about assessment. You could give colleagues the chance to work on an NRICH task briefly themselves, then share examples of children's work published on the site. Initially, encourage a positive frame of mind and ask:
