Another new class getting started with BrickUp today. We keep noticing this: when children aren’t racing the clock, they’re far more willing to think. #fluency #NumberClub

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

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!👇

So lovely watching children play our games. Two things stand out: 1) The huge amount of mathematical thought in this short clip 2) Sound on to hear the quiet concentration of the rest of the group doing the same.

NumberClub turns practising number facts into absorbing games so children can build their fluency through huge doses of mathematical reasoning. Read more about our mission here - and let us know what you think 👇vist.ly/4mr4c

Learning is messy and takes time. At NumberClub we cherish the messy stuff along the way - taking the time to try, to fail and figure it out. Maybe this is what people mean by "productive struggle". This is what it looks like. An important 5 minutes in this child's learning.

Flexibility of thought ✔️ Applying known facts ✔️ Deducing efficient procedures ✔️ Correcting own mistakes ✔️ Can you see all these elements of fluency in this student's NumberRamble level? What else can you see? Let us know your thoughts👇

Sam had a really good chat with Kendra Jacobs of Mathematizing 24/7 about what it takes to build thriving mathematical communities. It'll be available as an episode on Kendra’s podcast ‘Beyond the Numbers’ soon! Read on to get a taste of how it started… vist.ly/4m5kj

In the final part of this 3-part blog series, we consider how what we believe influences what we think matters most, and the decisions we make when teaching.. vist.ly/4kyu9 What do you believe about how we build better mathematicians? Tell us 👇

One route to fluent recall is through massive amounts of mathematical reasoning. Check out how this child 👇 develops and applies their knowledge of both multiplication and division to solve this level. True fluency in action! 😀

Watch this <1min video of a child playing BrickUp👇 What do they know about these numbers? Where can you see fluency? What might you talk with them about to develop their thinking even further? Let us know your thoughts below...

In Part 2 of this 3-part blog series, we explore generative learning - why doing > receiving, and how we can reshape mathematical practice. vist.ly/4ku6y Let us know what you think!

NumberClub is underpinned by a simple idea....children happily get through the huge amounts of mathematical thought they need, if you give them ingenious mathematical tasks to practise their facts, rather than trying to motivate them to answer trivial questions over and over.

More evidence of rapid impact! This child's addition test score went from 30 to 52/52 after just 6 weeks of playing BrickUp for 30 minutes a week - that's an increase of 73.3%! His teacher says "It must be the game that's made the difference" #fluency #NumberClub

Products and factors, and all the relationships and connections between them. That's the beauty and genius of Stick and Split. Rich, connected multiplicative reasoning that ALL children can access. Schools are amazed by what they see their children doing - you could be too 👇

This week it's all about Stick and Split 😀 We love the levels that start with random numbers, they encourage such flexible thinking about multiplicative relationships. What can you see here that you would call fluency? #fluency #NumberClub #MTBoS

This is why we do what we do!!! Reaching children who have the most difficulty with maths. It's been quite the week for BrickUp 😀 #fluency #NumberClub #MTBoS

Such connected mathematical thinking! After just 1.5 hours practice over 3 weeks, the level of fluency and reasoning developing here is so good to see 😀 #fluency #NumberClub #MTBoS

I love watching these playbacks because you really can physically see that fluency develop over the course of the level. Eg, notice how the player initially tries 2+3=6, but once this has been rejected, they play two instances of 2+3=5 without a pause.

What's going on here? What does this learner know about numbers? Where are they making mathematical decisions? Where could they be more fluent? What would you suggest to this student? 👇 #numberclub #MTBoS

What a month! Our games are changing the way children practise mathematics for the better!

Why does so much Edtech try to make maths feel like something else? Why not make it feel like maths?
