A Perfect Day for Maths Masterclass

Maths Masterclass had its first meeting this afternoon and showed that they can get points for the most complex ways of making a particular number. There were extra points for using decimal numbers, fractions and brackets!

(However, they found out that Points Don't Make Prizes... perhaps next time!)

They also demonstrated their ability to identify, draw, name and describe the properties of a range of common quadrilaterals - can you?

And they were left with a Masterclass Challenge:



Are you up to the challenge?

We went round each other's houses and worked out the next perfect number. We know we got it right because we checked with Mr Taylor but we are not giving the anwser away on the blog!
