Maths Week Ireland

16th Oct 2019

This is Maths Week Ireland in school. All pupils are participating in a number of fun maths activities in class each day as the week progresses.


The children in the P6/7 class took part in the Target Boards activity today which proved to be a great fun way for the pupils to practise arithmetic and they didn’t even realise they were working!


Target Boards were completed through the Maths Week Ireland website and consisted of a given set of 9 numbers and using any of these numbers (only once in each expression) and the four operators (+, -, x & ÷), the children had to find out how many expressions they could make that made up the target number.


This afternoon the pupils finished 4th on the island of Ireland with a score of 1006. Well done to all the P6/7 children for contributing to this excellent score. Some are hoping that we can beat it tomorrow!
