Mathletics - Your classroom teacher will assign specific tasks for mathletics.
Learning Intention: We are learning to create a bike track that will be suitable and safe for all riding abilities.
Success Criteria: We will be successful if we:

include potential hazards for riders.
Step 1: Make a list of all the aspects you would like to include in your bike track (eg table top, step up, wooden bridge)
Step 2: Assess the safety of your design and highlight potential hazards for riders. If you can remove or minimise the hazard, then please do so.
Step 3: Plan out your bike track using correct measurements. eg. (5m winding track, table top (2.5m in length)
Step 4: Draw up a complete design of your track, including labels, accurate sketches and a key.
Step 5: Upload your design to your Google Classroom, with a written statement on:
