The '''TESSA''' resource ''Investigating Number and Pattern : Learning through games'' consists of five traditional number-based games that you can play with your students to help enhance their mathematical understanding.  They range from mental arithmetic games played with the whole class to more complex board games to be played in groups as part of a carousel of number-based activities. Useful case studies and an interesting context (a story of a boy whose arithmetic improved because he entered puzzles into a competition) are also included with the resource.
