46 mental maths puzzles designed to be completed in 30 seconds. Each puzzle has a 30, 45 and 60 second timer available in order to cater for all abilities.

<p>I run a puzzle of the month competition at school. I put the puzzle on display outside of the maths classrooms but also encourage teachers to show the presentation as a starter in their lessons.</p> <p>Students place their entries into a post box outside of my classroom and a winner is randomly picked out of all the correct entries. I award all entries with housepoints, with extra being awarded if they were correct.</p> <p>Feel free to use how you will, at the very least there will be some engaging maths problems for you to use, with answers attached.</p>

<p>I recently used these two worksheets for my second set Year 9 class. They were given a choice of what worksheet to start with, those that started the red were encouraged to move on to an extension on the board.</p> <p>The green worksheet is easier than the red worksheet.</p> <p>Feel free to use and adapt as you will</p>
