“The holly and the ivy, when they are both full grown…”

Behind door number nine of the 2018 #LittleStuff24 is your chance to win an annual subscription to ConquerMaths & ConquerComputing PLUS an amazing £200 Robotics set!

We have been HUGE fans of Conquermaths for an age – most people know we Home Educate, and it was solely down to Conquermaths that my oldest sailed through his Maths GCSE and into 6th form college (and onwards into a fantastic job at a software company)
I’m genuinely really excited to be working with them in the coming year (as son No.3 heads into his own GCSE’s. I’ll admit, he’s probably feeling less keen than I am…
Conquermaths is an online Maths Tutor system – it’s the Maths Teacher you can Rewind

Learning with ConquerMaths means that all the pressure of learning maths is quashed; students learn at their own pace, they can stop and rewind the teacher to repeat any part of any lesson whenever they like.

ConquerMaths video lessons are clear, concise and straight to the point. Because the distractions and time-wasting of traditional lessons are removed, ConquerMaths lessons average under 5 minutes.

And this year, the Conquermaths team have branched out – into ConquerComputing. My daughter is genuinely excited about the coding opportunities in this one! 

Just like the maths programme, every lesson is presented with a beautifully crafted video tutorial that teaches the Computing National Curriculum using a child-friendly, step by step approach.

No prior knowledge or experience is needed by parents. A complete set of Lesson Plans and automatic record keeping removes all the preparation and marking work for the teacher or home educator. Creative Worksheets and fun Interactive Quizzes underpin learning to give children confidence and a feeling of success.

The Conquer team has decades of experience in online learning, having educated millions in Maths using effective, multi-sensory techniques. Their insightful support means that anyone can now learn and enjoy coding to create their own games and applications.

And alongside the two annual subscriptions, the Conquer team are also offering you the chance to win a Fischertechnik “Robotics-LT Beginner” Construction Set. It’s a complete Beginner’s package for children age 8+. With over 200 components and the aid of sensors (phototransistor, mini-switches) and actuators (XS motor, indicator lights), children can construct 12 easy-to-understand models such as a hand dryer, stamping machine, lighthouse with blinking light, Merry-go-round or automatic sliding door. For tomorrow’s engineers.

So to be in with a chance to win this amazing £400 bundle, just answer the first four questions in the widget box below. There are more chances to win by completing the other entry options if you so wish – they’re entirely up to you!  The closing date for this competition is 13th January 2019 and only entries received on or before that date can be included. The winners will be the first three randomly chosen entries. Good luck!

(and don’t forget once you’re done here, there’s still all the other competitions running, with prizes worth over £7,000 in the rest of #LittleStuff24 – go enter them all!)
