We are trying to develop our maths skills in two ways:
1) We are working on Mathletics to solidify our key mathematical skills (and can I say well done to everyone for scoring so many points that we were ranked 5th in the whole of the UK – the next stop is 1st place for Class 5).
2) We are working on problem solving to really stretch our thinking and engage our mathematical brains in creative ways. If you’d like to try some mathematical problem solving then click on the link below and try to solve these problems. You may find some ideas tricky but if you can think through, and correctly answer these problems then you will be really improving your maths skills. Have a go.
What a cool website. Doing it is fun.
It really helps me learn.
I love mathematical problem solving and I really learn from it.
Thank you for the advice Mr Antcliffe,i’m going to have a try of the sheets.
http://nrich.maths.org/6291 – this is a link for the four colour theorem.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_color_theorem – and this as well. I found these two links because I really liked the game and I wanted to find out more.
