GCSE Maths Tree Project


Brought to you by Construction Youth First and Treework Environmental Practice, this lesson plan encourages students to think about how studying circles can relate to careers in construction and working with trees.

Students will be presented with a site template and some rules, which they will use to create loci and constructions, sketching out the site’s usable areas. They will also learn about the very important role that trees often have within building projects.
