We have been doing loads of fun activities for Maths week this week. The theme has been Maths in Motion and we have used this to learn about speed, distance and time. Here are a few of the things we have been doing this week.

The Apprentice Branding task

In P7C our topic is The Apprentice and this week we were designing chocolate bars for a brand called Blazin Raisins.  We then sent them to other classes for them to vote for the one they thought was the best.

The group that came 3rd was: TEAM ECHO

2nd place was TEAM GRIDWEAR

1st place was GOLDEN ODYSSEY.

Maths Week Paper Plane Speed Challenge

For maths week this years theme was Maths in Motion so in P7C we made different types of airplanes but we had to make them using different angles so that it would go further and faster.  To find the speed we calculated the distance and divided it by time it took in seconds. We also learned that if you are trying to find the distance then you need to multiply speed by time.

Marble Run for Maths Week

Since this maths week theme was maths in motion P7C made a marble run using Kapla and we had to angle the Kapla correctly so that the marble could get from the start straight to the end.

Eastwood P.E.

In P.E instead of doing our normal P.E in the primary school we went to Eastwood on Thursday for P.E and got split into groups and we all did different things such as football, tennis and athletics. We will continue to do P.E in Eastwood for round about 9 weeks.
