The mathematics activities promoted the pupils’ learning process through problem solution as a group, in which the pupils practiced thinking analytically and creatively. The pupils were exposed to mathematics in different aspects different from what they learned in their class. This helped to develop the pupils’ attitudes towards mathematics learning. Other activities included practices of other required traits such as team building from rope jumping, training disciplines from camp rules, building common responsibilities, etc. The activities were carried out by students of Mathematics Study program of Faculty of Education, Khon Kaen University who also practiced working in team among themselves and with the school teachers to develop pupils in all dimensions.
