Explore outer space and collect different objects to earn space badges as you warp between galaxies with every correct answer. Each correct response propels students further into the galaxy, encouraging them to apply their mathematical knowledge while exploring exciting cosmic scenes.

In Let’s Explore – Estimate & Calculate, students will test their estimation skills and apply mathematical knowledge to solve problems involving rational numbers, percentages and financial contexts. They will engage with a variety of practical and real-world scenarios to strengthen their problem-solving confidence.

With every correct answer, students collect space objects that contribute to their badge tally. At the end of the journey, they will see all the badges they have earned, giving them a clear sense of achievement and progress.

Key Learning Outcomes:

• ✅ Apply estimation skills to a variety of mathematical problems
• ✅ Solve problems involving rational numbers and percentages
• ✅ Interpret and work with financial contexts
• ✅ Strengthen problem-solving and reasoning abilities
• ✅ Build confidence through interactive and engaging gameplay

How to Play:

1. Students read each estimation or calculation question carefully.
2. Choose the correct answer from the multiple-choice options.
3. Each correct answer earns a space object and moves them to the next galaxy.
4. Continue answering questions until the set is complete.
5. At the end, students view all the space badges they have earned.

Ideas for Classroom Use:

• 💡 Include in maths rotations for practise with percentages and estimation
• 💡 Use as a quick, engaging warm-up before tackling financial maths problems
• 💡 Pair with lessons on rational numbers for extra consolidation
• 💡 Replay to improve accuracy and reinforce skills

Top Teacher Tips:

• 💛 Send the QR code home for extra practise and reinforcement
• 💛 Let students personalise their game by choosing from six characters before starting
• 💛 Adjust the number of players or teams for whole-class, small-group or paired play

Let’s Explore – Estimate & Calculate turns maths practise into an intergalactic challenge where problem-solving and exploration go hand in hand.
