Problem Solving, Kung fu Puncuation and Dino Wondering

This week we have begun to look at problem solving in maths.  We have been learning that the answer is not the important part of problem solving, it is how you get there.  We have looked at four ways to solve a problem, guess and check, drawing a picture, using materials and acting it out.  Here we are solving our dinosaur problem together.  

                                               Acting it out

 We also tried some Kung Fu Punctuation during our shared book.

In the last block we began our Dinosaur inquiry with some great discussions.
