LKS2 – Class 5 & 7 – Maths

This week, we starte to apply our knowledge of addition and subtraction to worded problems. At the beginning of the week, we learned how to, ‘Find’ information, ‘Reason’ and ‘Answer’ worded problems. We worked together in groups to answer questions and practise the new skills. Today, we helped Mrs Hunter to cost out the remodelling of the playground. She wanted to update some of the equipment in the playground but she didn’t know which ones to update first. She needed our help to work out the cost of some combinations and work within the budgets provided. Mrs Hunter wanted to know we were accurate in our working out and thinking and she wanted see our find, reason and answer. For each challenge we complete, we got: £5 for an answer, £10 for an answer and reasoning, £20 for the full FRA.
