Math Challenge Search

Today we had another challenge for Morning Math.  It was the window challenge.  Groups had to find a math problem, which was hidden on a window somewhere in the school.  All groups found their challenge and correctly answered their question.  Each group got a point.  Way to go Grade 5's!
Here is one group that found their question by the grade 3/4 classes.  I was impressed by their accuracy in solving their problem, especially after a long weekend.  A job well done!
We are learning how to multiply 2 digits by 2 digits in Math and the class came across a Math Challenge this morning.  The class was split up into 4 teams and each team had to find 3 math problems around the school.  Rules included: Find three sticky note math problems around the school, without making noise.  Solve the problems with your group.  Appoint a spokesperson who will be explaining your thinking to the class. 
 We had a lot of fun being active and solving the problems we found.  Way to go Grade 5's!  We'll see when the next CHALLENGE is....
