Bhí Seachtain na Matamaitice iontach rathúil i Scoil Gharbháin i mbliana, seachtain a bhí lán le gníomhaíochtaí idirghníomhacha, spreagúla do gach rang sa scoil. Ba é an sprioc an tseachtain seo ná ár ngrá don uimhríocht a chothú trí ghníomhaíochtaí láidre, praiticiúla.
Ghlac gach dalta páirt i ndúshláin spraíúla agus i dtionscadail chruthaitheacha le linn na seachtaine. Bhí béim mhór ar úsáid ábhar nithiúil (blocanna, cruthanna 3D, ábhair athchúrsáilte) chun coincheapa matamaitice a léiriú ar bhealach físiúil agus inláimhsithe. Is iontach an rud é an dóigh ar oibrigh na ranganna le chéile ar thionscadail chomhchoiteanna, ag roinnt smaointe agus ag réiteach fadhbanna le chéile.
Gach lá, bhí Puzal an Lae ann a chuir ár n-inchinní ag obair, agus bhí an-spraoi ag na daltaí é a réiteach. Táimid thar a bheith sásta an líon mór daltaí a bhuaigh duaiseanna Matamaitice as a gcuid iarrachtaí agus as a gcuid smaointeoireachta cliste a cheiliúradh.
Bhí buaicphointe na seachtaine gan dabht ar bith na Rian Mata lasmuigh. Chuaigh gach rang amach timpeall na scoile ag úsáid an timpeallacht mar sheomra ranga. Foghlaimíodh an-chuid faoi mhéid, chruth, agus uimhreacha a bhaineann leis an saol mór, rud a léirigh go bhfuil an Mhatamaitic le feiceáil i ngach áit!
Comhghairdeas mór le gach duine a ghlac páirt. Táimid ag tnúth cheana féin le Seachtain na Mata na bliana seo chugainn!
Maths Week in Scoil Gharbháin this year was a tremendous success, packed with engaging, interactive activities for every class in the school. The focus for the week was nurturing our love for numeracy through hands-on, practical activities.
Every pupil participated in fun challenges and creative projects throughout the week. There was a huge emphasis on using concrete materials (blocks, 3D shapes, recycled materials) to illustrate mathematical concepts in a visual and tangible way. It was fantastic to see classes collaborate on joint projects, sharing ideas and solving problems together.
Each day featured a "Puzzle of the Day" that got our brains working, and the pupils had great fun solving them. We are delighted to celebrate the large number of children who won Maths prizes for their efforts and smart thinking.
The highlight of the week was undoubtedly the Outdoor Maths Trail! Every class ventured outside around the school grounds, using the environment as their classroom. Lots was learned about real-world measurement, shape, and number, proving that Maths is everywhere!
A huge congratulations to everyone who took part. We are already looking forward to next year's Maths Week!
