In this interactive webinar we will participate together in a range of problem-solving activities, at a range of levels, centred around the Platonic Solids.
As we work on these, we will be motivated to engage in approaches from a range of mathematics, utilising at most KS4 skills.
This webinar will be split into three distinct parts;
1. An introduction to the Platonic Solids and some activities
2. Breakout into groups and explore the activities further
3. Groups share approaches and responses/solutions
When: Tuesday 8th October 2024
