| Mathematics
Across The Curriculum
Why is Mathematics so important?
Dare one say the most important of all the
subjects taught in schools? Without
a thorough knowledge of Number how would you be able to do
the following?
- How
would you get to school (or work) on time?
- How
would you be able to catch the correct bus or train or plane?
- How
would be able to read the timetable?
- How
would you be able to read the number on the front of the
bus?
- How
would you know that you had been given the correct change?
- How
would you know that you had been given the correct goods?
- How
would you know what the speed limit was (or meant)?
- How
could you do the National Lottery?
- How
would you know that Wolves had won? (a rare event!!)
- How
could you know how many points Wolves were off the top?
Without
realising it you are using number in every aspect of your
day and night (after all you count sheep or you have forty
winks). You could not go a day without number – it’s
a topic of prime importance.
