Roisin McGrath – Acting Head of Mathematics | Mathematics Teacher

Maths Word of the Week

Each week, the Mathematics Department will present a new mathematical term to enhance your understanding of mathematical literacy. In your own time, explore the meaning and applications of each term in both mathematical contexts and everyday life. 

Consider creating a list of these words, and by the end of the year, you’ll have your own mathematical dictionary! (How cool!!)

If you have interesting math words you’d like featured in announcements, please email Ms McGrath.

Zenzizenzizengic means…..

The eighth power of a number meaning “the square of squares squarley”.
