Problem Solving fun!

Jess Lang —

This week in maths we have been putting our problem solving skills to the test.

In groups we have been using our logic and math skills to solve riddles and puzzles. One of our favourite ones was the bridge riddle. We had to work out how to get certain members across the bridge under a certain amount of time. Every person walked at a certain pace. When solving this problem we had to show a growth mindset to keep persevering to get the right answer. By the end of the session, no group had solved the problem! Chi continued working away for the rest of the day and ended up coming up with the correct solution!
