Description

The activities in Maths In Sport are based on a variety of sports, and each involves a mathematical skill. Some activities are designed to test curriculum material, some are extensions or applications, while others are just for fun.
Many activities are open-ended, and have the potential to be applied to situations in the school or community. Some suggestions are made with this in mind. It is recognised that teachers of mathematics in schools fit many descriptions – some are mathematics teachers, some are teachers who have mathematics classes thrust upon them, and yet others are physical education teachers who teach mathematics. With that in mind, there is something for everyone in this book.
