Maths is REAL LIFE

1. UNIT 4: Designing an e-activity to add to the project.
MATHS is REAL LIFE

2. Mathematics may be seen as the science of magnitude, number, shape, space,
and their relationships and also as a universal language based on symbols
and diagrams.
Mathematics curriculum provides opportunities for the child to explore the
nature of mathematics and to acquire the knowledge, concepts and skills
required for everyday living and to use in other subject areas.
Once students experience the value of math in everyday life, learning
becomes relevant, real and rewarding. Through curiosity, exploration
and determination to succeed, learners grasp critical concepts, build
confidence and gain valuable 21st century skills.

3. Design an ICT activity.
The online activities can easily be used to replace a standard worksheet or a
pencil-and-paper driven assignment.
There is a lot of software available to enhance the teaching of mathematics.
This project focuses on creating resources for use in the classroom that will be flexible and interactive.
Steps of the activity
Step 1: Introduction of the students-city,country,school.
In the first place ,each country introduces itself to another country through some software that teachers
offer them.
* Creating a facebook group for a better communication and collaboration.
* Registering students in TwinSpace.
Poster, Logo, windows movie maker, audacity, YouTube
Step 2: Organize the project.
The mathematics curriculum comprises six strands;Arithmetics,Algebra,
Geometry,Analysis,Probability and Statistics.

4. 1.Arithmetic

5. Types of
Numbers:
Square Numbers
Square Numbers!
Why do you think these are called
square numbers?

6. 2.Algebra

7. 3.GEOMETRY

8. 4.ANALYSIS

9. 5.PROBABILITY

10. 6.STATISTICS

11. There will be 6 teams and each team will be with a pupil of one country.
Six different countries are not necessary but six teams are needed to look for activities for each
of the strands.
Pupils in each school that participates in the project can choose in which parts of Maths
they prefer to participate.
Every team has to do a blog and look for activities to show us and each team will work
collaboratively on line
Step 3: We will use, basically,
Google tools because a majority of students know them and allow for
cooperative work. This project focuses on creating resources to use in the classroom that will
be flexible and interactive.
GEOGEBRA very important tool and very useful.
Microsoft Excel is the basis for all of the resources.
There are a number of advantages to using Excel. Firstly almost all schools already have
Excel running on all of their computers, so no extra cost is needed. Excel is ideal for looking at
number and data handling work, it is also possible to produce workbooks to investigate certain
aspects of algebra and shape and space.

12. . Visual Literacy in Maths to use highly effective images to enable students to more readily interpret
and make meaning from presented mathematical material.
It is important that teachers attempt to teach Mathematics using the most visual and practical approaches possible.
step 4 : Every team is going to do its part of the project and teachers review the work .They must look for
where they use maths in life.
Maths everywhere and for everything.
They will meet online to decide which activities to include in the final project.
Step 5: The results will be published in our e-twinning platform, organised chronologically
by periods.
