Mix and Match

A Maths Starter of The Day

There were four football matches taking place on Tuesday evening.

Dave thought the winners would be Coventry, Crewe, Derby, and Leeds.

Nick thought that Leeds, Millwall, Derby, and Stoke would be the winning teams.

John said "Wolves, Millwall, Crewe, and Leeds would all win their matches and that Bradford would once again score no goals."

Maths is Important!

"Mathematics equips pupils with uniquely powerful ways to describe, analyse and change the world. It can stimulate moments of pleasure and wonder for all pupils when they solve a problem for the first time, discover a more elegant solution, or notice hidden connections. ...

Mathematics is a creative discipline. The language of mathematics is international. The subject transcends cultural boundaries and its importance is universally recognised. Mathematics has developed over time as a means of solving problems and also for its own sake."
