KS3 maths. Out of the classroom into the gallery
Description
A pair of maths teachers are inspired by an art gallery and objects they find in the eponymous box to create and deliver an imaginative and exciting lesson.Elaine Fisher and Rosslyn Taylor are maths teachers at the Framwellgate School, Durham. They are taken to Newcastle's iconic Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art, where they are met by teacher-turned-artist James Johnson-Perkins. Their challenge is to produce a lesson that combines maths and art, inspired by objects provided by maths guru Steve Humble, and Discovery Museum Curator, Andy Goldwater. The main theme they focus on are the four unique bridge designs on the river Tyne, resulting in an energetic lesson that combines algebra and art, where their Year 8 students manage to fill a gallery in the Baltic with 3 dimensional structures.
