Meeting 5 - Resources

Meeting 5 took place on Tuesday 15th April 2008 at Comberton Village College.
We added websites to the list on this blog (right-hand side) and shared some file from Using & Applying Maths topics. The files are below.
On my computer, for the files to download correctly the filenames need to end in ".flp", or ".notebook". I click on the file, then select "Save As" and change the filename that the computer suggests so it looks the same as it does on the list below (eg "Buses.flp", rather than "Buses").
This seems to solve the problem!

Buses.flp
Plants2.flp
Practical Trees.flp
classify 2d shapes planets.notebook
Architecture and Mathematics.notebook
Asnat's rabbits.notebook
The Maths Teacher's Cross.notebook

Meeting 3

Here are the resources from Meeting 3, held at City of Ely on Wednesday 19th September 2007.
As always, these are resources that were presented at a meeting, so they may not make sense without the input from the people who created them.
If the files don't download correctly, then do try again and put the file extension after the name of the file when you save them (eg .notebook or .flp etc)

Meeting 2 Resources

Some of the Resources from Meeting 2 are on the County Portal.
The Promethean ActivStudio files "wouldn't stick" on the portal. You will find them below.

Some computers will allow you to save these files without any problem, others seem to think they are Zip files. Click on a file. Select 'Save As...' (or 'Save Target As') and if in the dialog box it says something like: "You have chosen to save a file of type .zip" then you need to go to the end of the filename that it suggests in the Saving box and add .flp to the name of the file. It should look like it does below. This will now save it as the correct type of file.

area2.flp
