We are learning to discuss maths ideas - Lunchbox Maths

Lunchbox Maths

We unpacked the big boxes that were full of lunchboxes.

Before we opened the boxes we guessed how many lunchboxes would be inside.

We peeped inside and we noticed there were 6 on the top layer and 3 layers altogether.

Mackenzie calculated 6+ 6 is 12 and 6 more is 18.

We emptied all the lunchboxes and checked the number of lunchboxes..

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18!

We sorted the lunchboxes by colour.

There were the same number of blue and neon-red lunchboxes.

There were 8 green and purple lunchboxes.

We would need 4 more green lunchboxes to match the number of neon-red 

lunchboxes.
