\"outside\"<\/a>After last year’s successful Maths Outside<\/a> day, this year we wanted to pay attention to this fabulous way to engage students with maths in their surroundings. This year a half day was dedicated to Maths Outside the classroom. The aims of the day were that trainees would experience outside maths tasks at first hand and would have the opportunity to devise their own \u2018outside activities\u2019 which they will share with the rest of the group.<\/p>\n

Amongst the activities:<\/p>\n

A NCETM data collection activity in which trainees in groups would explore the campus with the task to think of fun and useful activities on two different topics.<\/p>\n

A fraction relay. For photographs see Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ceri Reece did an outside activity with circle theorems. For photographs see Facebook<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The trainees shared these ideas afterwards and were shown last year’s maths trails<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The ideas from this year:<\/p>\n
