World Maths Day 2018

11th Apr 2018

Pupils recently celebrated World Maths Day 2018 at St Patrick’s on the 27th of March 2018. Please have a look at our wonderful learning on display across from the school office. We had so much fun and the children enjoyed completing some the following activities:

  • Maths Treasure Hunt
  • Maths/Art lesson
  • Playing their Maths games (that they created at home)

Treasure Hunts

The treasure hunt was very exciting as the children completed them in class or went around the school looking for different clues. They had to solve different mathematical problems in order to get the next clue to complete the treasure hunt.

Maths/Art lesson:

We love colour in St Patrick’s! Each year group completed a Maths lesson through Art by recreating their own interpretation of the following artists work;

FS: Piet Mondrian –  (prime colours, straight lines)                                             

KS1: Waissly Kadinsky - (abstract art circles/lines/colours).

                                                           

KS2:

P5 - Bruce Bilney (tessellation, activities and websites provided).                      

P6/7 – Bruce Gray (segmented geometric shapes and bright colours).

Maths games

Wow, what amazing creative children at St Patrick’s. The children worked very hard in creating amazing Maths games to be played in class with their peers for World Maths Day. Each child will receive a certificate for their hard work. Please look at us playing the games on the slideshow.
