This book considers the concept of middles. Some starter ideas are numerical and some are spatial. It is for all those interested in or involved with the teaching of mathematics. In all examples the emphasis is on problem solving and investigation.
Central to the generation of this material is our belief that mathematics should be both enjoyable and accessible. Many of the activities are investigatory in character and you are encouraged to expand and develop them.
Hasn’t it been said elsewhere that “Problem Solving is at the heart of mathematics&rdsquo;? You are at the centre of a mathematical adventure. We hope that you will find pleasure and challenges in the material that is presented here. In planning and preparing this booklet our target audience has always been teachers of mathematics.
We would welcome any observation, comments and interesting developments which you and possibly your students may have to offer, from work undertaken on the ideas met in this booklet.
Suitable for Key Stages 2, 3 and 4.
Our invitation is for you to take part in some activities that centre on mathematics. Spatial type activities are focussed to the left while numerical type activities are focussed to the right, with a few diversions radiating outwards.

In planning and preparing this booklet our target audience has always been teachers of mathematics. Should you be stimulated to use any of the material here with your students it is advisable that you make the problems and activities more accessible for them.
We are most grateful to those friends of ours who offered suggestions which we have included.
