Izak9

25th Jan 2017

Problem solving Friday was great fun in P6/7. We were introduced to a new mathematical tool, known as Izak9. This is a team based challenge centered on solving problems using a cube with various numbers and other mathematical signs. 

 

Working as a team, we had to build a 3x3 wall with multiples of 3. Then we answered lots of questions and used our mental maths strategies of partitioning, rounding and adjusting, counting on and back and using factors to help us. We can't wait to use it again!
