International Day of Mathematics at OLGC

International Day of Mathematics at OLGC

Thursday, 14 March was International Day of Mathematics. The theme for this year was “Playing with Math”.

Mathematics is integral to our school curriculum every day across all classes at OLGC. With the implementation of a new Mathematics curriculum in Years 3-6, our staff are regularly engaging in professional dialogue about the syllabus, opportunities to implement it and strategies to maximise student learning outcomes.

Today was an opportunity to solve mathematical puzzles. The poster alone has 6 different puzzles. Here is a webpage with some links to some great problem solving tasks: Organize an event! | International Day of Mathematics (idm314.org)

Here are some of our youngest and oldest students participating in Maths games to celebrate. Mr Egan’s class loved the game of Nim!
