Students of Liceo "Duni" go on searching Maths in every day life. Some of them have tried to catch examples of perspective with their cameras. All the pictures have been taken by the students during school or family trips!

Parallel and perpendicular lines
The students from Matera looked around them searching for everyday Maths. Some of them focused on parallel and perpendicular lines visible in nature or in man-made environments and have made a video with pictures taken while walking around town. It is so surprising to see how Maths is everywhere!

Maths and Crochet
An unusual way of modeling non-Euclidean Geometry, in fact the only way to make a physical model of hyperbolic space that allows us to feel, and to tactilely explore, the properties of this unique geometry: crochet. You can see more and read about it here.
Since March is woman's month, here is one more homage to the women Mathematicians- and one more of their contributions!

The answer from Bucharest to the Dutch task
The realy hard part was to solve and explain this with/to 6th graders: no functions, no derivatives, they don't even know radicals yet. But, some parts were very fit into the syllabus, and the anticipation of Pi was useful to the project.
Thanks, Dutch team...but we're exhausted! :)
I hope it's OK!
