Good morning!

Here is the eleventh issue of The Numeracy Hive newsletter.

Thank you to all who sent their solutions to the Weekly Challenge and well done to those who got the answer right (see the list of the winners on the front page).

On Friday 5th June we celebrate World Environment Day; for this occasion our ‘Maths is Awesome’ article is about different forms of renewable energy. This week’s brain teasers are Pyramids and Coordinate Grid Challenge; I have also added web addresses if you want to stretch yourself further.

Have fun!

Dr Webster

P.S. I added the newsletter in both PDF and JPEG format.

Good morning!

Have you noticed that the toucan’s beak makes up 1/2 the bird’s body length? What about the sword-billed hummingbird?

You can read and do some calculations about these interesting animals and have a go at the Number Detective and Mystery Matrix activities!

Don’t forget to send your answer to the weekly challenge by Friday, 29th May!

Have fun!
