We have looked at a large range of mathematical problems and tried to solve them.

We have investigated how many ways we can make 20 by adding 4 different numbers.

We have tried to solve a problem involving 3 Monkeys trying to decide how many nuts they can eat.

We have also been solving problems with Pentominoes! We used cubes to find as many unique shapes as we could. It took 2 days to find there were only 12 unique pentimonoes. Some groups found all 12.
