Session 9 - February 27th - Maths Around the World

Miss Hampson led a brilliant session on maths around the world.  The girls learnt the Chinese and Japanese method of multiplication, which proved to be fantastic multiplication strategies.  They then used these strategies to work out a murder mystery. 

After juice and the very popular cookies the girls enjoyed a mathematical treasure hunt and created a variety of Chinese tangrams. 

It was great fun to try different maths activities and to learn different methods of working out multiplications.  Thank you to Miss Hampson for a fun morning.
