Geometry - Week 4 Maths Sample
During Maths week (week 4), we have been focussing on Geometry. We had a choice of 10 different Geometry based activities. We needed to select 5 different activities and provide evidence when completed.
The evidence I collected: Is that with the scavenger hunt you need to find something that is circle.
What I enjoyed about this maths week was:that we had a lot of fun with the marble run and online games.
What I challenged during this week doing:Is the block activity because every time I builded a big tower and it fell.
My next step in Geometry is: math question.
