Portal Matematyka Innego Wymiaru zawiera ciekawe i atrakcyjne zasoby. Korzystałam z gier i planszy interaktywnych. Pozwala to zainteresować uczniów tematami i zaprezentować je w nietypowy sposób.Idea mistrzostw matematycznych też interesująca. Tego typu konkursy utrwalają wiedzę i motywują do nauki zdolnych uczniów.
