Maths In London
Last month we (Year 6) had a lovely trip to London which included a lot of maths. We learnt that there are 33 pods on The London Eye and that the House of Lords has over 800 members. When we arrived at The Harry Potter World, we took pictures by the 9 3/4 platform and converted it to an improper fraction – 39/4. We also spent our money there and saw how much some of the things were. On the way home we calculated how long the journey was and how tall the buildings were such a Big Ben. It was amazing to see how much maths there is in the world around us! Alex
