Pupils were tasked with completing the following sentence, "I love Maths because..." and qualifying responses were rewarded with an *I love Maths* badge. Here's why Year 8 Alfie loves Maths: #### Alfie... *because of the specific answers which makes it very simple, this means that there is an exact answer for everything unlike English where everything is abstract.* Pupils that want to claim an 'I love Maths' badge should simply click the link below to access the online form (or check their year group Teams) and write Mr Sneddon a few sentences explaining why they love maths. The best responses from each year group will be selected and also featured here in our article.
