A fresh look at NZ Maths teaching resources

Mathematics is at the heart of learning, empowering students to understand the world and solve problems with confidence. In New Zealand classrooms, it’s not just about passing NCEA – it’s about using effective NZ Maths teaching resources to build essential life skills. By nurturing logical thinking and everyday decision-making, strong numeracy skills truly open doors.

We know the challenges of supporting students at different levels, which is why high-quality, New Zealand-specific resources matter. In every classroom, the right NZ Maths teaching resources can transform challenges into opportunities, empowering teachers to build confidence and deepen understanding.

At LearnWell, we create NZ Maths teaching resources that fit the way you teach. Designed to engage, challenge, and support students at every stage, our materials help learners succeed—both in the classroom and beyond.

Supporting teachers and students at every level

Our NZ maths teaching resources include workbooks and digital tools, each providing clear explanations, structured practice, and real-world applications. Whether reinforcing core skills or extending learning, these materials make maths more accessible and engaging for students.

NZ maths teaching resources for building foundational numeracy skills

Our Ultimate Number Start Right Workbook is an excellent resource for building strong numeracy skills. Packed with clear examples and exercises, it reinforces essential operations in whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percentages, exponents, and integers. Ideal for learners aged 11–15, it also provides an opportunity to extend capable students in Year 6 and above. With three ability levels for each lesson, students can develop confidence and progress systematically. This workbook supports a wide range of learners, helping them strengthen key skills and approach new challenges with confidence.

For a structured approach to teaching mathematics at primary level or to address learning gaps, our other Start Right Mathematics Workbooks provide a solid introduction to concepts while setting students up for success in later years.

Numeracy Matters: The numeracy co-requisite guide

Numeracy Matters is crafted to help students meet the Numeracy Co-requisite by focusing on real-world applications and problem-solving skills. It serves as an ideal guide for the 10-credit Numeracy standard co-requisite assessment. As a fresh addition to our NZ Maths teaching resources, Numeracy Matters is already making a significant impact in homes and classrooms, with overwhelmingly positive feedback from educators and learners alike.

Digital options: affordable, in-depth NZ maths teaching resources

Our LearnWell Digital Mathematics resources for Year 9 and Year 10 are ideal for blended learning environments. They allow students to work at their own pace while reinforcing key ideas. These digital tools provide in-depth, carefully scaffolded coverage of all maths strands. They ensure a comprehensive, New Zealand-specific grounding in the curriculum and are an important part of our NZ Maths teaching resources.

We've bundled the digital Year 9 Mathematics resources and the Year 10 Mathematics resources to offer outstanding value.
