Year 3 MAV Games Day
Friday, August 05, 2022
On Friday, 5 August, we sent a team of four boys from Year 3 to represent Antonine College at the MAV (Mathematics Association of Victoria) Games Day at Derrimut Primary School. It was a beautiful school with lots of fun areas to play in, but we spent most of the day in the gym with the other competitors. We completed problem-solving challenges, played three different games against an opponent from another school, and at the end of the day we raced through a maths relay! It was both challenging and fun, and we were proud to represent our school.

- How many window panes are in each colour? Order the colours from “most panes” to “least panes.”
- If the tallest student is 1.5m tall, estimate how tall the glass wall is above him.
- Is more of the wall made of clear or opaque glass?
- How many rectangles all together are there above the door?
- What shape is the whole glass wall?
