P2 Problem Solving

15th Sep 2017

P2 had a tricky problem solving activity to work on today.  They had shape cards of different colours and one person had to collect all the red shapes while the other person had to collect all the circles.  The problem is they had to figure out what to do with the red circles!  Some pairs thought they should stay with the circles and some thought they should stay with the red shapes, others thought we should share them.  In the end we looked at Venn diagrams and discovered that if we overlapped the circles of the diagram the shapes could go in the overlap as they belonged to both sets.  We also discovered that some shapes had to stay around the outside as they didn't belong with the sets.  Well done P2 for great thinking and discussing.
