Maths at Groam House: Picts, Patterns & Probability
Rosemarkie1st-30th Sep1.00pm-4.00pmFree
Come and explore the fascinating world of the Picts through maths and puzzles at Groam House Museum! This event is designed for primary school pupils (mainly CfE Level 2 and upper primary) and their families.
Children will decode Pictish Ogham inscriptions, design cross-slabs using symmetry and geometric patterns, explore timelines and scale, and test their luck with dice and knucklebones games.
Activities include a six-page activity book, with a historical timeline, quizzes & games, all packed with fun maths covering coding, decoding, counting, patterns, probability and more. A special materials box will be available to support hands-on learning during your visit.
This is a great opportunity to combine history, puzzles and creative design — all while discovering Rosemarkie’s unique Pictish heritage!
We are delighted to once again be collaborating with Twinkl Scotland, who have produced a range of new free resources for this year's Wild Maths theme.
Early, First and Second Level have each received resources relating to Drummond Safari Park and to the topic of weather, linking to and informed by Curriculum for Excellence, which support teaching and learning maths.
Finn Finity and the Wild Maths Zoo Adventure is an interactive story that you can read together with your class or as a family. It incorporates maths puzzles and activities, that you solve as you read.
