This resource is best displayed on a classroom projector. Students could have the flexibility to solve the anagrams in a way that suits them best, either individually, in small groups, or even as a whole class. Should some of the anagrams prove too challenging, the teacher can step in to give clues. These hints could be as simple as revealing the first letter of the answer or indicating the Maths topic where the word is often used. This is also a great opportunity for the teacher to further enrich students' vocabulary. If some words are not immediately understood, the teacher can explain or review their meanings, helping students not only solve the anagram but also improve their understanding of these words.
