Mathletics LIVE - Te Kauru Nui Maths Hub

Every Thursday and Friday the students in Te Kauru Nui Numeracy Hub warm up their maths brains using 'Live Mathletics'. 3… 2… 1… RACE! The fast-paced and exciting world of LIVE Mathletics is where students can challenge each other to a real-time race that tests the speed and accuracy of their maths skills. For the first 15 mins of the maths sessions, our classroom is absolutely buzzing with maths enthusiasm and excitement!

Maths Fun and Games

Each Friday we have a range of maths games that our students play, and each week they are new activities.  This week the students enjoyed playing live mathletics, QR basic facts, I have who has times tables and of course the attraction of the day, the sphero. Here are some photos and videos of our maths learning today.

The girls are working on their coding to control the Sphero.  They had to consider the speed of the sphero, how long it would roll for, the direction it would go, while some included sounds and a change of lights.

The boys are wondering around the room looking for the card that has the answer to their questions.  Once the find the correct card, they scan the QR code to reveal their next question/challenge.

Sorry, thought this video was a little longer, but these boys are playing times tables "Who has, I have".  A fun and engaging way to practice basic facts.
