Year 8 SEALP - 8.69

This week Mr Breukers kindly allowed us into his classroom to see what his Year 8 SEAL students were completing in class.

 

Practising their mathematical thinking and tactics to play their games, students were heard saying;

 

“I have found the winning position”, meaning they had worked out how to manoeuvre their opponent into losing.

 

“I’ve found the pattern to winning”, suggesting they could block their opponent into losing each round if they went first.

 

The class then played a class knockout tournament game.   Xander Beattie came out on top,  to win the challenge. 

 

The students loved the fun and engaging ways to improve their strategic thinking in Mathematics.
