Maths Week Quiz Day (First and Second Class)

DATE:    Wednesday, 15th October 2025
TIME:     10.00am - 10.40am 
VENUE: Online Via Zoom

Target Audience: First and Second Class

We are delighted to announce a Live Maths Week Quiz Day with a difference on Wednesday October 15^th. For the first time ever, we are inviting all classes to take part in the quiz. The main aim of the quizzes is for pupils to enjoy playful and engaging learning experiences, and see Maths as a fun and accessible subject for all. The focus will not be on one correct solution, but will enable pupils to share their individual thinking and strategies.

The quiz will take place on Zoom and will last for 40 minutes, but it is envisaged that teachers will be able to further discuss the content with pupils afterwards. 

Please note this is non competitive, and it is hoped that all pupils will enjoy the experience! Please ensure your pupils have a pencil and a blank A4 page. They may work independently or in pairs/groups. Plenty of Maths Talk is encouraged! Bígí Linn!
