Mr Bee and TrilbyTV, a digital signage provider for education, are partnering to bring "Mr Bee Daily Maths Tasks" to digital signage screens in schools across the U.K., adding to an education lineup that includes: Vocabulary Ninja; Rodocodo; Britannica and WWF, according to a company press release.

Mr Bee was created by classroom teacher John Bee in 2019. He needed resources that were intelligently designed to draw attention to mathematical structures. After creating them, he started sharing them. Since 2019, Mr Bee has grown to release books and develop subscription packages for schools, teachers and parents.

"My aim is to make maths make sense for all children," Bee said in the release. "The daily tasks are carefully designed to link arithmetic and a concept. They often use variation theory (seeing what changes and remains the same), so children may make mathematical links and connections. The use of stem sentences allows children to practice key mathematical vocabulary and develop their reasoning."

The combination of Mr Bee's content and TrilbyTV's software solution helps engage audiences, according to the release. TrilbyTV's Neil Emery is also excited about this partnership.

"Digital signage isn't just about screens on walls and delivering information. For TrilbyTV it's about inspiring young people, showcasing their achievements, while helping reinforce their learning," Emery said. "That's why our content collaborations with those such as Mr Bee Teach are so important to support the next generation's learning, utilizing school digital signage screens."

"I am thrilled that even more people will be able to make maths make sense with the help of TrilbyTV," Bee said.
