Yesterday Richard Coleman from East Down Construction visited the school. He brought along his work van filled with exciting tools. He told us about all the different maths he uses on a daily basis. He has to read architects’ plans and know scale. He has to calculate the area and perimeter from plans. He also needs to know a lot about angles to put roofs on houses. He also needs to use ratio when mixing mortar. He loves using maths at work every day! 👷♂️
