Mental maths (As in...... totally mental!)

Here are just some of the outcomes of a rather tricky maths activity year 5 carried out today.

For your information: Plan view = view from directly above shape. Front view = view from the front of shape. Side view = view from the side of the shape.

The children had to use a set of diagrams to create different multilink shapes replicating the plan, front and side views of the shapes. Sound complicated? It certainly was! But we refused to admit defeat.
