Today in Maths we have been planning movies or holidays. We had a budget of £800 and we had to try not to spend more.

We were put into pairs and were given the choice of two sheets. We had to choose what activities to do and where the holiday was going to be. We had to choose equipment we might need.

The film groups had to choose at least two actors. We had to pick what sets and props we needed.

We had to think about money, budgeting, times tables, adding, subtracting, using calculators, percentages, dividing, using large numbers, best deal, reading and understanding the information, working out discount, problem solving and keeping ideas organised.

We found it quite interesting and very fun. We didn’t realise we were doing so much maths!
