Maths Challenge - Making Ten

Last week we worked in our table groups to complete a number of maths challenges as part of recognising Maths Week 2015.

Look at the work below.  These photos show the workings of each group for the five minute challenge of making ten in anyway they could think of.  The group leader was the scribe and the team was responsible for contributing their thinking.

Little Owls

Piwakawaka

We were all impressed at the number of ways we made ten as groups and together as a class.

Our working pages show we are able to use addition, repeated addition, subtraction and multiplication.  We are also learning the commutative principle ('reversals').

We are working on extending our skills in 'working' with and 'playing' with numbers.
