Maths Week-2nd Class

Maths week was last week here in GETNS and to celebrate we undertook lots of active and engaging activities! Firstly, we were learning about square corners so we thought of ways to use our bodies to show what square corners are....



 We then went outside the classroom to find and record square corners. We found them in all sorts of places....





We then used some shopping magazines to create a Halloween party list. We had a limit of €20 to spend and we used our maths skills by estimating and rounding the prices of each item and then adding up the total price...




 Lastly, we went on a maths trail around the school. We had to estimate the answers to questions such as; how many windows are in the school,how many doors etc. We then counted and measured! We had lots of fun during maths week!!!!
