MetroCentre Maths

Year 4/5 were invited to take part in a fun maths day at the MetroCentre, Gateshead.

We were all given a maths worksheet to complete. The worksheet had questions that we could only answer by walking around the shops and finding the answers.

We had to work out the area of the glass around this lift outside Waterstones.

We had to count how many fish were in this mural outside Debenhams. We also had to see how many words we could make using the letters in DEBENHAMS. Jonathon found a seven letter word: Bensham.

We also met a Maths Wizard who showed us some magic maths tricks!

Then we were asked to work out the total cost of the stamps on these letters. They were stuck to the floor in the Village.

We had a really fun day and solved lots of mathematical challenges!
