Extension Mathematics

On Monday this week, we started extension maths in Room 11. We currently have a mix of both year 7 and year 8 students. It has been very fun!

     We started our betting today, which is where we have to choose a ratio and the amount we want to bet. We got to start off with $500. We could win more money from answering  maths questions correctly but we could also lose money from getting them wrong. This teaches us ratios, keeping track of our money as well as the maths questions we have to answer.
    
      Mrs Howard has said that she will teach the year 8s that were in extension maths last year Trigonometry. That's going to be awesome!

      We can't wait to have heaps of fun this year and I'm sure there'll be lots of AHA moments!
