Following a lesson on Numberblocks, Emorie created her own Numberblocks which she shared with the other children. She showed them how to work out 1 more and explained how she had put the lines across to make the right number of blocks.

Well done Emorie

Expeditionary Maths

18th November 2022Stuart Longley

As part of the expedition – Regs to Riches: What lies within the castle walls? we have been designing and making catapults.

After successfully building two different kinds, we decided to use our maths skills and measure how far each catapult could fire the projectile.

First, we discussed how to make this a fair test.
