A collection of forty six mathematical investigation ideas suitable mainly for primary students with some suitable for lower secondary students. The activities in the booklet cover: enlargements, halving, colouring flags, matrices for young children, using isometric paper, using triangles to produce hexagons, addition and subtraction squares, number machines, colour combinations, matchstick patterns, arithmagons, building with multilink, number patterns in a grid, journeys on a grid, paper folding, think of a number problems, polyominoes, boxes and nets. This resource from Manchester Polytechnic was written by Gillian Hatch. The investigations are presented as teaching scripts not workcards. They are intended to be explained verbally to students so that no reading problems were encountered. More details on the use of real problems precedes the collection of problems at the end of the booklet; these are presented as 'situations' or 'contexts' rather than teaching scripts.
