Free Resources & Printables

Because who doesn't love free resources, right?!  
I am building up a bank of printable resources and teaching ideas to help make your job a little easier. 

More will be added on a regular basis so click below to find out more about signing up.  Something you need?  Send in your request to me and I'll do my best to add it to the list!

Online CPD & Resources

100% online CPD courses that you can do at your own pace, whenever and wherever you want (even if that is in bed in your pjs with a cup of tea and biscuits!) 

There are also resource packs which are jam-packed full of activities and ideas, all at the click of a mouse.   Low-prep, easy to differentiate and using the resources you already have.

In-Person Training & Events

Let me come to you instead of travelling to courses.  I'll create bespoke training for your whole school or cluster to help you develop active maths and raise attainment and engagement.

I plan to run a limited number of courses in venues around Scotland throughout the year as soon as COVID allows so click below to find out if any are near where you are. 

Welcome Teachers

My name is Amy Sinclair and I am a primary Maths specialist. 
I help teachers add some oomph to their maths lessons through CPD, resources and support.  
My focus is on how to create meaningful, active and engaging learning experiences which are low-prep, cheap to resource and easy to differentiate.
I know how busy you are so I appreciate you popping by and hope you find my website useful.

CPD without the hassle

Way back in pre-pandemic 2018, I wrote a whole blurb to go here about the benefits of online CPD.  Now, thanks to Covid, we know more than we ever thought we would about online learning, both positive and negative!

As we move back to a world where there are more CPD options on the horizon, there are still a lot of benefits to logging on whenever suits you to get some new ideas that are meaningful to you.

In-person CPD can be expensive and stressful to get to.  It can be near impossible to get cover if it is during the school day but the alternative is finding the energy to rush somewhere at the end of the day or giving up a well-earned Saturday.  

Online CPD is ready and waiting, whenever and wherever you want it.  Click below to find out about online CPD where pyjamas and biscuits are optional but are highly recommended!

Low-stress, low-prep and high fun resources

Sick of spending time trawling online trying to find fun activities to use in your classroom?  Do you have links and ideas saved on your phone but never get round to actually using them?  Does it feel like it's too much hassle to figure out how to make them work for what you need and create the extra resources they need? 

I've created the resources I always wanted when I was teaching.  Ready-to-use without lots of extra time planning and organising.  All in one place, easy to differentiate or adapt and quick to explain to the kids.  There are game boards, printables, powerpoints, posters, discussion cards and more to make your life easier.
