<mdoxml version="1.0"><p><strong>Welcome to the new edition of NRICH.</strong><br></br>
</p>
<p><a href="http://nrich.maths.org/public/monthindex.php?showfulltier=yes">This month</a>, you have another opportunity to work on the problems created for the November edition of NRICH. In addition, we have published a <a href="/7778">Primary</a> and a <a href="/7792">Secondary</a> Advent Calendar with a mathematical task a day in the run up to Christmas.</p>
<p>We have worked with Professor Malcolm Swan to create problems that can be solved by more than one method. We invite you to consider a variety of ways of approaching the tasks, and encourage you to reflect on the merits of different routes to solutions.<br></br>
<br></br>

If you're a pupil you can submit your solutions to the problems using the 'Submit a Solution' tab at the top of each problem. Solutions to the November problems will appear in January.</p>
<p>To discuss the problems, visit the <a href="http://nrich.maths.org/z/infinities">Infinities</a> (primary), <a href="http://nrich.maths.org/z/irrationals">Irrationals</a> (secondary) or <a href="http://nrich.maths.org/z/fractals">Fractals</a> (Post 16) blogs.<br></br>
<br></br>
If you're a teacher, the Teachers' Notes accompanying each problem offer guidance on possible ways of engaging learners in the activity or challenge.<br></br>

<br></br>
The NRICH Project aims to enrich the mathematical experiences of all learners. To support this aim, members of the <a href="http://nrich.maths.org/2714&part=">NRICH team</a> work in a wide range of capacities, including providing professional development for teachers wishing to embed rich mathematical tasks into everyday classroom practice. More information on many of our other activities can
be found <a href="http://nrich.maths.org/2712&part=">here</a>.<br></br>
<br></br>
On our website you will find thousands of our free mathematics enrichment materials (problems, articles and games) for teachers and learners from ages 5 to 19 years. All the resources are designed to develop subject knowledge, problem-solving and mathematical thinking skills. The website is updated with new material on the first day of every month. For guidance on how to find the right resources
for you, go to the <a href="http://nrich.maths.org/2710&part=">Help section</a> of the site.</div>
