We had studied pythagoras and trigonometry for some weeks and students were told they must include a right angled triangle with measurements/ angles in a 'real life' scenario/picture and then go onto finding the value of 'x'. <br /><br />I gave one example on the board of a stick figure flying a right angled triangle kite with measurements on it and did working out in another shaped kite. <br /><br />They REALLY loved it and keep asking to do more! :) Just need to find portions of our unit that can be visual AND mathematical!

I must say both my year 8 and 9s just love it AND it helps all the students as yrs 7-12 all walk through the area and are reminded of Mathematics on their trip.<br /><br />Sorry for the delay in replying, my 'reply' function hasn't been working and I had to get my blog designer to fix it!<br />LizBayside Math Teacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10640672247147560801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2648577288490354570.post-68152413542324212382013-06-08T01:25:23.738+10:002013-06-08T01:25:23.738+10:00I love this idea because the kids can be outside d...I love this idea because the kids can be outside doing something they love while actually using math.
