Miss Blackburn’s Year 7 maths class teamed up with their friends in Mr Wilson’s PE class this week to uncover the maths in football. Each of the five-a-side football teams were allocated with a group of analysts who were tasked with watching the game carefully and recording every pass, tackle and shot and noting whether or not they were successful. At half time the analysts met with their team, presented their findings, and helped them to refine their game in the second half.
At the end of the lesson, the students were all rewarded with a game of football!
