As part of the mathematical learning at Allendale Middle School in Northumberland, the school have undertaken three mini projects that link classroom mathematics with the real world. Their Year 5 pupils have grown 4 different bedding plants, Year 7 pupils studied the work of Escher and produce a design based on tessellation and symmetry and Year 8 pupils studied the topic of speed from the viewpoint of the science and mathematics curriculum.

Learning Maths Outside the Classroom
In November 2006 the DCSF published its manifesto 'Learning Outside the Classroom'. The NCETM actively promotes the learning of mathematics outside the classroom, this part of our web portal features projects that demonstrate good practice from many parts of the country. We hope you will find these projects inspiring, and be encouraged to share your ideas and projects.
