  • Description:

    When telling people I am a maths teacher I have often encountered the somewhat nervous response ‘I was never any good at maths at school!’. I hope those that take up this course will eventually agree with its title ‘Maths can be fun’. The course will cover a range of topics starting with the counting numbers and moving to Fibonacci sequences, prime numbers, Pascal’s triangle, probability, problem solving – the composition of the group will steer the content and level. Links with art and music will be explored. No previous experience is required except a basic ability in arithmetic and an interest in numbers and problem solving. Please bring paper, pen, pencil, rubber, ruler and calculator to sessions.
