Brand new e-resources helping children and teenagers back to school

We’ve just added two fabulous online learning resources to Your Library – Mathletics and Spellzone.
Mathletics covers all areas of maths and has over 1000 different learning activities for students aged 5-18 years. Make maths exciting and encourage pupils to compete against others users from countries all over the world in live maths games of speed and skill. Mathletics offers the opportunity to set up classroom activities such as organising inter-school maths competitions and is perfect for using with homework clubs. All you need is an Edinburgh City Libraries membership to register online and get running with Mathletics.
Spellzone is an interactive online spelling course for children aged 10 and up. Spellzone is suitable for helping children and adults with dyslexia and is also useful for learning English  Spellzone contains tests and games as well as a vocabulary ‘word list of the day’. And how about this for synergistic learning – today’s word list is all about maths shapes!
