Inspirational Maths

Image
For the first three weeks of Term 1 2020, during maths we have been doing inspirational maths. This means we have been doing a range of activities involving different maths skills. Firstly, we used our knowledge of position and orientation to create our own flagpoles in groups. Next, we focused on transformation by creating a piece of art that showed how we can use rotational symmetry to display our name. We touched on our knowledge of place value by showing how numbers can be displayed in a variety of ways. Here are some photos.    

Sculptures

With Mrs Wilton-Scott we have been doing our own sculpture study. We have found lots of sculptures around Whanganui using Google Maps, and have now designed and created our own paper sculptures!  

Fitness

The mornings have been colder this week! This means we stay indoors for fitness and move our bodies through dance. We are really enjoying it - especially Footloose. It gets our hearts racing!
