Maths word problem

For this week's multi-level maths problem we had:

Mrs Johnsen made a big beautiful cake which she cut into 5 pieces. She spread 20 strawberries evenly over the cake. How many strawberries were on each piece?

Here is one group solving the problem. They tried a few ways of sharing and persevered until they found the solution. Well done to all of the groups for their problem solving.



Wetland Visit

Today we went to the wetlands. It was muddy and fun. We went over the bridge and saw an old broken bridge. There is deep water there and we saw lily pads. We looked for ducks but couldn't see any. Dylan I saw a big eel. How exciting!
