Outdoor Numeracy at Greenmount Forest.

9th Nov 2017

The pictures might look like P6 have become a class of tree huggers, but in fact they are using their ability to estimate and approximate when calculating the age of trees...

They also used their understanding of 'factors' to help sort compound and simple leaves, used North America Native techniques to measure the height of trees, map skills to navigate through a forest and used their knowledge of measure to help understand a forest cycle of life.

Oh, and we saw a horse and fed some ducks too!
