W6, T1: Problem Solving

We are looking at looking at solving problems this week.

Before we solve a problem we need to take risk and go into the learning pit. We need to take a risk and face challenges.

To be able to solve a problem sometimes we have to collaborate. Collaboration is about combining many ideas together to make a mega idea.

We used the Figure it out book: At camp to try and work out how to raise money for a camp trip. We then use different problem solving strategies to work out how we are going to get a cabbage, a goat, and a wolf across the river.

Some strategies we learnt was to plan our strategies and highlight the important information. Some us acted the problem, some of us made a list and drew a picture, some of us guessed and checked our answer, some of us went backwards and tried to find the pattern.


Can you see us collaborate and use some problem solving strategies?
