  Team in Action Mathematics is not only about numbers, formulas, and exercises in a textbook. It is also about understanding the world around us, solving everyday problems, making decisions, and finding practical solutions. The Turkish team of the CREW – Creative and Responsible Environment Warriors project had the opportunity to experience this in a different and exciting way by using the international mathematics workbook created within the project. The workbook brings mathematics closer to real life through six different themes: Ecology, Agriculture, Fishing and Navigation, Food, Fun, Sports and Logical Thinking . Instead of simply solving traditional textbook exercises, students are encouraged to explore mathematical ideas through practical situations, experiments, observations, and problem-solving activities. The Turkish team particularly enjoyed working with the activities related to Maths in Agriculture . These activities provided an excellent opportunity to see how mathem...

  From the Sea to Mathematics: The Turkish Team’s Journey into Fishing and Navigation Can mathematics be found at sea? Can a fishing trip, a boat’s journey, or finding the right direction become a mathematics problem? The Turkish team of the CREW – Creative and Responsible Environment Warriors project explored exactly these questions while contributing to the “Fishing and Navigation” chapter of our international mathematics workbook. At first, fishing and navigation may seem far removed from mathematics. However, as our students discovered during the preparation process, the sea is full of numbers, measurements, calculations, and logical decisions. From calculating distances and travel times to estimating quantities and finding directions, mathematical thinking plays an important role in activities connected with the sea. Working on this chapter gave our students an opportunity to look at mathematics from a different perspective. Instead of beginning with formulas in a textbook, ...

  Bringing Mathematics to Life: The CREW Mathematics Book For many teenagers, mathematics can be one of the most challenging school subjects. The teachers involved in the CREW project wanted to change this perception and find creative ways to make mathematics more appealing, meaningful, and connected to students’ everyday lives. Their joint effort resulted in an original mathematics book created through international cooperation. The book offers a collection of activities and resources that can be used in regular mathematics lessons, extracurricular activities, or for independent learning. It is organised into six engaging themes: Ecology, Agriculture, Fishing and Navigation, Food, Fun, and Logical Thinking . Each chapter includes three practical experiments, presenting the process, observations, results, and conclusions. These activities are complemented by mathematics problems inspired by the same topics. An answer key is also provided, allowing both teachers and students to use ...
