This week in Maths, we have been focusing on the Olympics so we are doing thing like javelin throwing, football and all of those types of challenges. In the challenges we have to measure the area of things, the millilitres (ml) something of things and the meters of how far something went.
I really enjoyed collaborating with my team, doing all of the different activities and exploring what it would be like if I was in the Olympics I found out that when rowing if their is to much weight on one side of the canoe than than it will tip, so you have to distribute your weight evenly and things like that.
Something that was a bit tricky was getting my team to listen to me and getting all of the stuff together for the challenge. Maybe next time I could ask my team to do some stuff for me and talk a bit louder when explaining stuff.
I am really looking forward to next week when me and my team are going to do the other half of the challenges that we didn't do this week.
You have written an interesting account of the maths challenges. I like the way you have identified problems and thought about solutions for next time. What was your favourite challenge?
