You Cubed Maths

You Cubed Maths Week of Inspirational Maths

Whanau Paikea and Tahu Potiki have been exploring mathematical concepts through Standford University's You Cubed Math Week of Maths.  Each day we watch an inspirational video clip from Jo Boaler and her team.
In our first session Whanau Paikea had a huge success with the activity Four 4's.  In this activity we had to use four 4's to represent every number from 1 - 20. Some of the numbers were very hard to work out but once we came together and shared our ideas from the workshop groups we were able to complete the task.

You were able to use an combinations of operations .   Answers did not have to follow BEDMAS rules as we were working through them orally but the next step would be to make sure they follow the mathematical rules.  If you are interested in any of the You Cubed Math activities follow the link to the You Cubed Website at  You Cubed Math
