#STEMGlasgow Challenges

Good morning!

I thought today we can do some fun STEM activities which also involve using maths skills.
You don’t need to print out the worksheets; for the Angles activity just count the angles on the screen and type your answers as a Private Comment. Also for the Constellations, copy the 6×6 grid in your jotter or a piece of paper, and use the coordinates given to plot them.
Enjoy!
