More Marvellous Maths

Here is our maths problem for today.  

We had to think about the important parts of the problem - 5 bears, 3 buttons.  Then we had to decide how we would show our working out.  Some people drew the bears and buttons and some people used bears and counters.

Working collaboratively to help solve the problem.

Using equipment to solve the problem.

How did you solve it and what answer did you get?

Some people had an extra challenge.  

Can you solve the problem now?

Jessica and Zara counted out 24 beans for the buttons.

They then worked together to make groups of 3.

It was a good challenge.

Can you think of a different problem using bears and buttons?
