How did you work that Out?

The Room 8 maths class have been working on using different strategies to solve a maths problem.
Sometimes just knowing the answer isn't enough when you need a range of strategies to solve problems with bigger numbers. Have a look at the whiteboard to see how they recorded their thinking for everyone to see.

Prodcution Costumes
