Maths Challenge Day

The children have been engaged in fun and practical maths challenges today.
Thank you to all staff for creating a positive mathematical learning.

Below are pictures of Year 5 pupils engaged in their mathematical challenge. They had to build a greek temple using 2D and 3D shapes. They also had to measure and work out lengths, widths and also work out perimeters, areas and angles in their temples.
