Lampogo 3 is the very first Lightning Maths game. Featuring cards and counters, it’s based around solving “low-threshold, high-ceiling” puzzles – that means they’re easy to learn but with lots of opportunity for deep mathematical reasoning.
Although originally designed for the classroom by teacher and board game enthusiast Roy Clutterbuck, Lampogo 3 is for people of all ages. Whether you’re seven or 70, you can test out your problem solving and build your maths confidence, getting to grips with topics like number bonds, addition and subtraction.
On top of honing your personal maths skills, buying Lightning Maths is helping make a positive impact in schools. Profits go towards sharing teaching resources for schools to use as well as a programme to support the learning of problem solving strategies.
