Ideal for any grade. It is never too early for children to learn about important mathematical figures
Have a classroom display resource to get your students talking and interested in the many branches of Mathematics.
You can put them up on the wall or be creative and hang them from a washing line that stretches across your classroom.
The timeline ranges from Pythagoras born in 570 BC to Joseph Kruskal born in 1928 AD.
Each sheet has a very brief note about the mathematician but is by no means all they have achieved.
The idea is for your students to spark an interest, perhaps research a bit more about them or even discover others. Does your state/country have a famous Mathematician and what did they discover.
It will also get students thinking about what career they could follow with a good qualification in Math.
The world is definitely their oyster!!
