MYmathsmakerproject

This morning I introduced to the students an idea called MYmathsmakerproject.

This is an opportunity for students to use their Maths skills along with their creativity and imagination to plan, design, and make...

YOUR ULTIMATE SPACE

come up with an idea of what YOUR ultimate space would be… (this part of the process should include some sketching / drawing of ideas)

What is its purpose?
What will the space be used for?
Who will use it?
What shape would it be?
What would be IN the space? (find pictures and prices of ALL the ‘things’ you will ‘buy’ for your space)
How would it be furnished? (use catalogues to get pictures and prices of the furniture you will include)
How would you set out the things in the space?
What colours would you use?

Here are the 'spaces' they have selected to plan, design, and create!

So let the planning begin!

This project will involve MANY maths concepts such as scale, geometry, measuring, adding costs, working out perimeter, volume...watch this space for updates!
