Olympic Diving = Fantastic Math Lesson

Posted by Adrian on Aug-4-08

The Olympic scoring method for diving is a bit of a mystery to most but offers a great opportunity to get some nationalistic fervor and Math happening in your classroom.

Tonight I’ve added a couple of Math activities based on calculating the dive scores of the Olympic  athletes. You might be surprised how much the kids get into this.

cheers
