Mathematics for French and Slovenian Teenagers.

French and Slovene pupils in action! The Pedagogy Library for Teachers in Basse-Normandie sent its technicians team to make a documentary on the collaborative work achieved by our pupils from both sides.

We would like to thank Marianne Viel, Olivier Trefeu, David Auffray, Myriam Naciri for their work.

The film lasts 20 minutes and can be viewed on the website

For obviously technical reasons, Tony's report should be read in the numbered order, page 1 being the title with no number...

Sorry that this report was posted in the wrong order....

Tony's report has five pages!

Most reports take from one to five pages since diagrams are very paper consuming.

Tony wrote this text explaining math in English as a foreign language and using his own diagrams.

Cube Dissection with Triangular and Hexagonal Sections, Part 1.

Cube Dissection Using Pentahedra, part 2.

The final poster made by the group to describe some properties.

Our collaborative work deals most of the time with geometry because the work can start with modeling the object itself. It is then easier to describe it in English as a foreigh language once the item is standing on the table to be looked at. Establishing its geometric properties is then a natural thinking process.

Cube Dissection Using Pentahedra, part 1.

The item made as a first step in the collaborative work.

Our Slovene partners decorated some mathematical models to send us their best wishes to our project. In a shoe box arrived in our school per mail these beautiful handmade items.
