Division, volume and other topics
Description
Whether it's using angles to find Pirate Kate's lost treasure or using fractions and percentages to help Nateisha with her packed lunch survey, each of these eight lesson starts show a dramatised situation which presents a mathematical problem. The other six problems are: The Thief's Problem, which involves division; Mrs Hanson's Problem, which explores volume and division; Piggy's Problem, which requires multiplication; The Cake Problem, which looks at percentages; The Puppy Problem, which also requires division; and the Train Problem, which also uses multiplication. A suitable year group is suggested for each lesson start; this is shown on the tile board at the start of each problem. The topic is also indicated. There are work sheets, including extensions for each problem, on the website.
