How Would we live without knowing about numbers?

In schools boys and girls study Mathematics counting, adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing are a part of what we learn.

Schools around Auckland study Mathematics because it pays a very important part in our lives such as how live without even knowing what numbers were, how would we do such things as figure time ,build houses or even keep a score of a game without even knowing about numbers. Not only is it important everyone can learn it together.

MOTAT Trip


“ WOW” I gasped at the beautiful olden day art displays up on the walls. I think Mr Somerville was annoyed by my nagging and telling him to go here and there. I was also impressed and excited that we got to discover the first person to build a plane. His name was Sir Richard Nicholson he was old and was born 18th of July 1850 that was my first highlight. My second highlight was the tactile dome. I screamed at Lola as she was clinging on to me like a koala. Finally I rushed to the exit in the dark and at the end I met up with Dillon, Waata and Max and they went first. I can also imagine how frustrated that was for me arguing about who’s going to slide down first. But what a surprise it was Waata and I was last. After a long day at MOTAT we hopped onto the bus and then we were on our way back to school.
