Problem Solving in Cedar Class

In Cedar class, today it is number day and the children have spent the morning problem solving.

They had 3 tables set out, table one had one bar of chocolate, table two had two bars of chocolate and table three had three bars of chocolate. 

The children had to line up outside of the classroom and enter one at a time with a question in mind, ‘If the chocolate on the table I sit at is to be shared out equally when I sit down, which would be the best table to sit at?’. 

They all really enjoyed working out a fair way for them all to get the same amount of chocolate. After seven attempts they cracked it! They then got to the best part of the lesson...eating the chocolate!
