Psst, over here! Sparkle-Shot (that’s Bingo) has found these secret notes from Mum and Dad. What do they say? Look at the code from Mum and write out what she's saying! And what about a long message from Dad? Plus, help Drill Sergeant Rusty reach Private Jack using their mission code.
For extra fun, why not make up your own mission code and test it out with a friend? It could be in your bedroom or school playground or park. You could even swap secret messages using Mum and Dad’s alphabet code!

In The Magic of Math on the Soccer Field, host Marcus du Sautoy tries to convince one math reject that math is present everywhere in the soccer game he loves — from quadratic equations on the pitch to the probability of a team winning. Du Sautoy makes the case that the soccer players are intuitive mathematical geniuses. This video is excerpted from BBC’s Horizon: Why Maths Doesn’t Add Up, where Marcus du Sautoy introduces the elegance and wonder of math to a “math reject,” traveling from the classroom to a four-dimensional world.
