Maths week in fourth

The pupils in fourth enjoyed a great few days in school doing all things maths: they engaged in a zoom on shape and space and participated in a maths quiz with hundreds of schools all over Ireland.

They played maths games and looked a maths in a different way for homework. They engaged with coding with Lego WeDo kits and Izak9 maths problem cubes.

Well done to you all.
