15.12.17 Outdoor Maths

15.12.17 - We had been learning about turning through the points of a compass in maths and we wanted to consolidate our learning by teaching another class so we brought them up to the trees. We used a compass to find north and then we used sticks and stones to create compasses. The gave each other instructions to follow such as; "Face North. Turn 25% of a turn anti-clockwise. Which was are you now facing?" Some of the questions were quite challenging but it certainly helped us learn. Warm coats were needed in the middle of December but it didn't stop us enjoying being in our wild place.
