Saltus 4S shows math is everywhere!

Saltus Upper Primary 4S had the perfect assembly for World Math Day. They shared their love for math with a fun rap on fractions, a funny One Direction song and a human graph complete with x-axis and y-axis. There was an appearance by Count Mathula who shared his concerns about how boring math is, but then realised it was pretty cool and that you can use an audience to create questions on Mean, Median and Mode. They also showed that there are infinite ways of finding four as an answer:
