STEP 4. MATHS
1. Here we have examples of the children using maths skills and knowledge by making a display on the amount of sugar in different foods. We got our information from the HSE because we are a Health Promoting School. We made graphs using the information with Excel.
2. We made a a maths trail around the school.
3. We also did a survey on hot dinners. We get hot dinners in school every Tuesday and Thursday. Our teachers wanted to know what we thought so we made a survey of all the questions to find out what everyone thought.
