During Maths Week we had lots of fun playing Maths games such as 4 in a Row and Snakes and Ladders. We really enjoyed solving some picture simultaneous equations. We also learned about Tangrams. We designed our own Tangram shapes and arranged them in various ways to make different Tangram pictures. This was a little tricky at first but with some practice we started to find it easier. We also went on a Maths Trail outside our school and among the things we had to spot were the different shapes in the school grounds, the number of different colour cars in the car park and the number of windows in the school as well as finding the year the school was built! We had great fun working with our groups to find the answers! A very enjoyable Maths week was had by all.
We have really enjoyed participating in the Junior Achievement programme this year. We have been doing the Our Families theme with Nessagh over the last 6 weeks and have really enjoyed learning all about the different ways we can help on our local communities, the difference between needs and wants as well as becoming entrepreneurs coming up with our own ideas for a cake business! We made thank you cards for Nessagh and gave them to her after our last session. We were all so delighted to receive our certificates!
