The Mathematics Medicine booklet consists of 8 pages of maths problems suitable for Year 3 children. The booklet uses the idea of a weird ‘medicine’ recipe from Roald Dahl’s George’s Marvellous Medicine. In this maths resource, George’s teacher has designed his own weird medicine and the ingredients are all hidden inside this book of problems.
