Year 4 + Year 6 = Success

Solving a maths challenge

As part of our Science/STEM week we have been working on a whole range of fun maths challenges kindly loaned to school by the university. Children from Ganges class spent an engaging lesson in the Year 6 classroom where the older pupils worked with the younger mathematicians to assist them in trying to complete all manner of tasks.

From number to 2D shapes to time and compass points, the activities most certainly ensured the children from Ganges had to draw on all different aspects of their maths learning to have any chance of solving the challenges. The Year 6 children would drop in a gentle hint if it was needed and worked really well as mentors to all of Ganges class.
