Most platforms optimize for how many questions students answer. NumberClub removes the questions and builds the thinking.

In discussions about learning math facts through retrieval, we often underestimate one key difference between math facts and most other facts. If you don’t know that the capital of France is Paris, there’s no way to work it out. With maths facts, there's always a way.

Ideally, students would learn their basic number facts through doing lots of mathematics, not through repetitive fact drills. At NumberClub, we asked a simple question: how could we help students get through enough of the right kind of mathematics for those facts to stick?

Every child is a maths person. But sometimes, they just need a way back in.

Learn basic facts But learn them through reasoning Because some students may never learn all their facts They can fall back on reasoning Some students do learn all their facts They'll be able to use them more flexibly.

I've thought about this question so often, in so many ways, that I know this fact fluently.

A teacher shows this to a class and asks them to look for patterns. Over a few minutes they discuss it with the whole class till all can see the numbers in one column go down by the same factor as the numbers go up in the other, while the product remains the same. Is this DI or Discovery Learning?

There are some brilliant moments of efficient, flexible number sense in this playback of BrickUp - but what are this student's next steps? Where could they make better mathematical or strategic decisions? Give us your answers below!

A question we get asked a lot is 'Do the NumberClub games support our mastery approach to maths?' The answer: 'Yes!' Read our latest blog about how the games embody the NCETM's '5 Big Ideas' 👇 & comment if you'd like a demo to see them in action 😀 vist.ly/4pzwd

Brand new 'Getting Started with NumberClub' video is up and rolling 😄 It's got all the answers to the FAQs we've gathered from our experience with hundreds of schools. Give it a watch and get in touch to join our awesome community! numberclub.com

What's your favourite primary/elementary maths question? We love this one. With the algorithm, the answer seems surprising, but every other way, it seems so obvious.

What really motivates your students to practice mathematics? And what does that tell us about what mathematics is, or could be? vist.ly/4pj26

This is what we think fluency looks like - can you follow their moves? 1x7x7x2=98; 98÷7÷7x2=4; 4x5=20; 20÷5÷2x11=22; 22÷11x13=26; 26÷13÷2x5x13=65... How could they get from 65 to 54? Comment below 👇 #NumberClub #fluency

How do you build mathematical memory in your classrooms? Does it work? For who? Read our blog and comment below 👇 We'd love to know what you think! vist.ly/4pfyh

Check out this playback of Stick & Split 👇 Fascinating to see how this student reasons about how to make 60 from four 55s, three 24s and an 8! What would you ask them? What would you do differently? #NumberClub #fluency

"Whatever your approach to mathematics in your school, regular play of NumberClub games will underpin your students' number foundations for all learning." Join our growing community dedicated to building better fluency at numberclub.com

NumberClub games contain incredibly high doses of mathematical thinking. Every time a player makes a choice, they develop their mathematical memory. Read one, and let us know what you think! 👇 vist.ly/4p6i7

Recalling facts is just one part of fluency. NumberRamble challenges children who 'know' facts to really use them, developing flexibility and number sense. It stretches thinking through huge amounts of reasoning and problem solving! How do you think you'd do? #NumberClub #fluency

Have you seen Stick and Split yet? The OG NumberClub game - supporting the development of lasting fluency rooted in solid mathematical pedagogy. And kids love it! #NumberClub #fluency #BettUK2026

What questions would you ask to support reflection on this level? How might you check for learning and understanding?

Given that #BettUK2026 is in full swing, it seems timely to ask this question again! What would mathematics EdTech look like if we didn't ask any maths questions? vist.ly/4nre9 What do you think?👇 #NumberClub #fluency

How often have you heard 'I'm not a maths-y person'? Maybe you've said it about yourself? Our mindset about mathematics matters. Read our blog on this here 👇 and let us know what you believe! vist.ly/4nkqr

Take a peek at this awesome fluency in action👇 By playing BrickUp for just 30 mins a week for 6 weeks she improved her test score by a massive 11 points. That’s a whopping 42.3% progress! Displays great reasoning opportunities, as all good maths games should (Mayer, 2019)

Most maths games are just drills in disguise. How can we encourage practice that supports children to build meaningful mathematical memory? Check out our blog post '“Do you know it yet? Do you know it yet? Do you know it yet? …” 👉 vist.ly/4nhhd

Curious about how to play BrickUp? It's designed to support the meaningful practice of addition and subtraction facts and provide lots of opportunities for spatial reasoning and masses of mathematical thought. Ideal for children aged 4-8. Watch our intro video👇

How much mathematical thought can you get from a Year 4 pupil in five minutes? Love the pauses. That’s when you can see the thinking is really happening.

Our Head of Community Engagement, Dr Sam Parkes, is flying the flag for meaningful games-based learning in maths at #TDaPELondon tomorrow 😀 If you'd like to learn more about how to select and implement maths games effectively in your schools, do get in touch!👇
