[Maths-Education] NRICH October site

[Charlie Gilderdale]

Dear all,

The October edition of NRICH, the maths enrichment website, is now live 
at http://nrich.maths.org.
This month the mathematical problem-solving and mathematical thinking 
theme is Visualising. The early problems help to introduce some of the 
concepts and ideas which are then developed at higher levels.

Go to Stage 1 & 2 http://nrich.maths.org/public/monthindex.php?mm=1 if 
you are interested in mathematics at a level usually encountered at 
primary school.
Go to Stage 2 & 3 http://nrich.maths.org/public/monthindex.php?mm=2 if 
you are interested in mathematics at a level usually encountered at 
lower secondary school.
Go to Stage 3 & 4 http://nrich.maths.org/public/monthindex.php?mm=3 if 
you are interested in mathematics at a level usually encountered at 
upper secondary school.
Go to Stage 4 & 5 http://nrich.maths.org/public/monthindex.php?mm=4 if 
you are interested in mathematics usually encountered at post-16 level.

*The Plus New Writers Award*
Our sister site, Plus magazine http://plus.maths.org, is looking for 
the science writers of the future, who can make mathematics lively and 
interesting for a general audience. All secondary school and sixth form 
students are invited to write a piece of up to 900 words about the life 
and/or work of any mathematician. If you think your pupils might be 
interested, please see http://plus.maths.org/competition for more 
information.

With best wishes from The NRICH Team.
