TEACHING WITH MATHOMAT

 

The Mathomat template combines all of the features of a traditional maths set: (ruler, protractor, compass and set squares) with a large range of important shapes in a single drawing instrument. Mathomat is fun to use, it inspires creativity and exploration. It is also practical, storing easily into a folder, so students can come to class prepared.
