Lack of Direction!!! Not in 3C…

Lack of Direction!!! Not in 3C…

I was fortunate to join 3C just as they started doing some compass work. All pupils were gathered in a circle with their compasses, each taking it in turn to point to an object in the class with another pupil having to work out whether it was North, East, South, and West. Mr Cusack really had the class engaged with this very hands on learning, well done…

What could you do with £10,000?

Well 4G (Miss Gould maths lesson) certainly knew. The task seemed simple, to fit out an empty classroom with £10,000 to spend! However the class soon realised that it wasn’t as easy as they first thought. In groups they were each given tasks to purchase things like, furniture, stationary, computers, interactive white board etc…The class were really excited about this and were more then happy to share their ideas with me. Full marks again to a really interesting and hands on lesson, I wish maths was this much fun when I was at school!!
