Mathematics

Curriculum Enrichment Activities

National numeracy day challenge - Our pupils looked at how maths was useful in their future careers, raising their aspirations in mathematics.

Y6 enjoyed a fantastic afternoon playing a ‘Monopoly Accounts Game’ with Adam from local Accountancy firm ‘Armstrong Watson’. We worked in teams and each child played an important role, such as accountant, banker or estate agent. Adam taught us how to record the income and expenditure. At the end of the game, we had to work out our total income and our total expenditure. Once we had these figures we could calculate our profit.  We added the profit to the money we started with and then counted our money to ensure these figures balanced. It was a great afternoon learning valuable life skills.
