New beginnings 2, 3, 5, ...

The new school year has started and this year I'm hoping to help you to find out how amazing maths is and how the maths you learn in school is used in the world around us. It's not always easy in school to show or look at all the interesting maths in the world and hopefully this blog will try to show you.

I'm hoping everyone from Year 7 to Year 13 will be able to use the blog but don't be put off if the things you look at seem too complicated, sometimes things aren't as complicated as they seem. All mathematicians start off not really understanding what's going on but with a bit of effort, determination and interest they begin to understand and appreciate how amazing our world is... All by using maths!

I hope you enjoy it and if you find anything you think other people might find interesting let me know!

To get started have a look at this about some of the most useful numbers... Primes! http://www.murderousmaths.co.uk/games/primcal.htm
