Monday Maths Group Treasure Hunt

This week we were looking at some logic and number problems within the class as part of a treasure hunt! It really worked well and we all really enjoyed the lesson. What was your favourite part of the lesson? How could we improve it?


There is another treasure hunt available on the school website here! Have a go at printing it out, cutting out the questions and getting your parents and carers to place them around your home! the link is here :  http://www.chatsworthprimaryschool.co.uk/mathemagicians-at-work/

If you get a chance to do it at home please share how you found the treasure hunt, better yet take some pictures of yourself doing it! You could even get your family to get involved as well!
