Super resource for whole day revision with Year 11 to get them engaged with their learning. Thanks!

This is a great idea. I've used other mathematical treasure hunts before, but I think the students will get really involved because they can use their calculator.

Very easy to set up/use. Worked well as a tool for recapping use of powers and roots calculator keys as well as BIDMAS and rounding to 1 d.p. Nice and active, and generated useful learning conversations. Thanks.

Fantastic resource - used on a revision day with Year 11, and also with Year 9. Livens up an otherwise dull topic.
