We continued work on the Café Project with work on scale drawing which is on the MyMaths website under Library – Shape – Scale & Similarity – Scale Drawing. We discussed how scale drawings are used in real life, and we watched some video clips from www.bbc.co.uk before discussing the practicalities of surveying the gardens opposite the school which involved the use of coordinates. We then spent a lesson actually surveying the gardens before making scale drawings of the site.
The class had a homework due on Wednesday 29th January on the Mymaths website (Area of a Rectangle), not everyone completed this despite daily reminders.
The class was issued a homework on the MyMaths website (Area of a Triangle) with a deadline of Friday 7th February for completion.
