On Wednesday and Thursday both year 5 classes will be working with both the iPads and virtual technology for their maths lessons. They will be using the astronomy apps to continue with radius, diameter and circumference problems connected to the solar system, and using sim-on-a-stick to create a geometric shape called a heptagon…this will be tricky as it has 7 sides at an angle of approximately 51 degrees.

now this is a very clever way of being hands on with geometry!
lol, i love it but then, i’m a mega g33klette with a minor in mathematics!
looks great and keep building! =)

Great to see you displaying your experiments, Mrs Booth.
