100 Hungry Ants!

Date: 10th May 2021 @ 4:25pm

Year Two worked hard in pairs to solve a division problem based on the story of 100 Hungry Ants by Elinor Pinczes.  We worked together to find all the possible ways of dividing 36 or 24 groups of ants.  We tried to work systematically to make sure we found all the possibilities and we had some great discussions about using known facts to help us find all the ways.  This also led to some great reasoning about odd and even numbers.  

Miss Hooson and Mrs Fielding were very impressed with the perseverance and stamina shown whilst completing this task.
