Abstract

The aim was to build a table football following a request from the children in the 4th year of primary in the CPMestre Colom in Bunyola, Mallorca. We built a table football using wood and some plastic containers. In order to be able to do this we had to answer some questions related to maths, particularly measurement and calculus (dimensions for the pitch, area, goal, player?s height, the space in between each player on the bars), also geometry (one-two dimensions, radius, diameter, the concept of area and some simple concepts related to space such as plans, right-left, to one side, to another). There have also been some issues related to data analysis (charts).We have also worked with different football related documents (game instructions, articles about football, radio broadcasting and an oral presentation to the parents).We have learnt and enjoyed ourselves solving different problems.
