Years 4, 5 and 6 at Tillingbourne Junior School enjoyed the opportunity to test their maths knowledge in a new and fun way. The Fun Maths workshop, held on 11th December, presented challenges to the children in the form of 45 different puzzles. Ranging from shape recognition, sequences, calculation and logical thinking, the pupils worked in pairs to solve the problems within a time limit. Teachers were impressed with the perseverance of their pupils to solve the puzzles. "Maths is fun!" was the general agreement of the children at the end of each session. A year 6 pupil's comment...
"It made me think that maths isn't all about numbers, but it is about problem solving. It gave me a more positive approach to maths, I particularly enjoyed the trick questions. Overall it was lots of fun, thank you for coming!"
