no thanks I only want one maths photo prompt

Does this sound familiar...?

You start your maths lesson and hear, "but when will I use this in real life?"

Your students are disengaged in their maths lesson because they cannot see how it applies to them.

Because let's face it, maths lessons can often be more conceptual than practical.


That's where these photo prompts come in.

Use these at the start of ANY maths lesson to help students make real world connections and engage meaningfully in the lesson ahead.

Jess from The Sydney Teacher

Hi, I'm Jess

... and I want to tell you why I started snapping photos all around Sydney for my maths lessons.

For years, I heard the same thing from my students: "but when are we ever going to use this?"

And honestly, they were right to ask. It's the last thing you want to hear as a teacher, but I rarely showed them how the maths I was teaching actually applied to their everyday life.

By starting each maths lesson with a photo prompt, you can instantly engage your students by showing them just how much maths shows up in their everyday world.

That's why I built this pack. So your students can stop asking "when will I use this" and start noticing maths is already all around them.

YES! I need this!
