The boys are looking forward to Christmas but have been working very hard!! Santa Claus will be delighted with their efforts!
Here the boys are doing some Maths Modelling - using Maths to describe a problem then find a meaningful solution!
When learners create a mathematical model, they organise and make sense of their mathematical knowledge and choose ways to communicate their mathematical thinking.“Children naturally generate their own informal mathematical models in a way that is context-specific and makes sense to them. As children’s knowledge, understanding and experience grows, they may develop more formal, sophisticated and efficient models which they can use to share, connect and communicate their ideas with others.” (PMC Draft specification March 2022 p25)
