Mathematics at Magill 

What's happening in Mathematics this week?

With the holidays upon us what a great opportunity to put maths learning into practice! It's a great time to cook with family and friends, using mathematical knowledge to measure and convert units. Using knowledge of time to make sure that the cupcakes don't overcook or to know when the dough has rested long enough to make scrumptious pizzas.

 

Maths is all around us, and we use our mathematical knowledge every day without even knowing it. If you're planning a vacation by car, include your children in the planning, how long can you drive for before you need petrol again?

 

If you're staying in Adelaide it's a great time to explore the Space Discovery Centre at Lot 14, North Terrace. You can book entry and get more information about the great facility here:

Holidays are a time to allow our brains to rest and recharge, however if you are feeling like your child needs a fun challenge to explore, perhaps try the You Cubed website below for fun mathematical challenges for all ages
