Week 6: Wednesday Big Maths with Mrs Drummond-Davies (Ferrier/Davis)

Subject area
Maths

For this week's Big Maths we are problem solving at the sweet shop.  You might like to make paper versions of the sweets in the question to help you to work out the answers. Alternatively, you could use different coloured counters, Lego bricks or building blocks as the different types of sweets. Remember that we are looking for ALL of the combinations and therefore need to find a systematic way of recording these.

Challenge 1: Can you add another question for someone at home to try?

Challenge 2: Can you create a similar challenge of your own with your own selection of sweets?
