Maths Outdoors

A small child dressed in a waterproof suit, wellington boots and a bobble hat is running along a path with grass on either side. The child is smiling.

In August 2020, Maths Week Scotland ran an online training session with Juliet Robertson on delivering Outdoor Maths sessions with early years and primary school aged pupils.

Below are
