Maths Week Ireland is an all-Ireland celebration of Maths and is a partnership of over 50 universities, institutes of technology, colleges, museums, libraries, visitors centres, professional bodies - any group that values maths. Maths Week Ireland promotes, awareness, appreciation and understanding of maths through a huge variety of events and activities.In our school we made a special effort to promote Maths this year. We were aiming to show how maths is an integral part of life and the world around us. We chose to focus on Shape and Space throughout the school. Every class looked for ways in which shapes are integrated into our everyday lives. Shape and space was integrated into art projects and displays through out the school. First class made lovely circle cats. The infants went on a shape hunt to see where all the squares, circles and rectangles were hiding around the school.
The slide show shows some of the work we did during Maths Week this year.
