Carrot Challenge in Maths

Mrs Tatman's friend needed a bit of advice about how to sort some carrot sticks out for her class.


          There are 33 children and she wanted a speedy way of counting to check if she had the right amount. We worked with a partner to try and think of a great way to help her!

          
                          




Mrs Tatman was amazed at what we came up with. Some of us counted in 2s and 10s. 

Some grouped their carrots in 3s or 5s.

It was great that we has so many ideas for her friend to choose from!

                                                  

                      



         The best bit was that we could eat the carrots when we had finished our challenge!
