Learning about angles using CarBot

Our learners are busy discovering how mathematics and coding fit together . They had to think hard about how to measure 'the turn' to programme CarBot the turn the corner and to make shapes. They explored how to use our home made 'angle tool' and protectors to find and measure the angle. But first, they had to think hard about what angle they were actually measuring! Its not as easy as it sounds!
We have some fantastic mathematicians in Room 3. Ask your child all about their learning. Help them discover angles, ramps and slopes at home. Have a go at estimating and measuring them.



Anthony coded the CarBot to make a shape. Can you figure out the shape by reading the code?
Clever chappy using a 'Repeat' coding instruction. This shows that mathematicians like being efficient!
