P5 enjoyed taking part in lots of activities during Maths Week.  We learned that Maths ‘is everywhere’ and is relevant to day-to-day life and work.

Together in small groups we decided on a business name and recipe for our smoothie stalls . We then assigned ourselves roles in order to prepare our product to sell. These included designing, advertising, marketing and finance.

We used our knowledge and skills of money to work out the costing to buy ingredients and also used our data handling skills to carry out a survey on the most popular smoothie after our group presentations.  We were then able to use this information to create bar graphs.

The best part of the week was being able to make the winning smoothie. Who knew Maths could be so fun!
