An Essential Input and Output Poster
Make maths relevant with this cycling-themed input and output poster designed for upper years students. Using the example of a cyclist travelling at 8 kilometres per hour, this resource helps students learn how input/output tables work.
This poster includes both vertical and horizontal configurations, showing the cyclist’s distance over 5 hours. Available in full-colour and low-colour versions, this input and output poster is a great reference for students during a unit about number patterns.
