Practical Mathematics in Room 20

Salote Rouvi —

Students from R20 Maths measure the perimeter and area of shapes around the school.

In Maths, our focus area is Measurement. 

During today's session the students were put in small groups and given a hands on activity. Their task was to measure the perimeter and area of basic shapes around the school.

Windows, picnic tables, the walls of a classroom and the 4 Square game were all measured. It was great to see groups using the learning from their maths classes in a practical setting.
