Year 6 – Class 8/9 – Maths Problem Solving

On Wednesday morning, Year 6 were given the challenge of costing up a ‘revamp’ to the school playground. They headed out on to the playground with trundle wheels, metre sticks, pen and paper and worked in small groups to try and work out an estimate. They were given the costs of turf, artificial turf and tarmac as they used their understanding of area and money.
