Maths is Good for You! resources
(sorted in alphabetic order)
These resources are for everyone wanting to do some maths and learn a little bit of its history. Originally they were made for use in a classroom; over the years I’ve heard they were used by people learning mathematics on their own, or by children learning at home. Feel free to use them yourself, but please do not share with others (you can send them a link to this page instead).
This page will shortly be updated with links to articles relating to the downloadables, and with some other resources. Until then, enjoy what is here!
