The Napier Code is a 6 lesson mathematics unit that explores patterns and sequences within number through an immersive story telling experience. It’s effectively a play on the Da Vinci Code but uses the Scottish Mathematician John Napier as the central figure in a deathly treasure hunt around Edinburghs landmarks. Covered are: Fibonacci Numbers The Golden Spiral The Number 9 Quadratic Sequences Pascals Triangle The Vedic Square

A quick lesson that explores mortgages and sees pupils using their knowledge of multiplication and percentages to garner an underatanding of how the property market works.

These lessons are designed to provide stimulating and immersive writing experiences. I would: Have pupils draw out the map on a large surface (like a whiteboard table or big sheet of paper) Create a LEGO figure/peg doll to serve as their character Gather kids on the carpet and model writing the first interaction with an object Then set the class to play independently You could stop half way for a wee peer or self assessment With 5 minutes to go, present the last slide in the story and have pupils conclude their stories
