Written teacher read-aloud · Day 65

Two workable plans

Let's make a plan someone can use. Seat 48 paper toy travellers. A pretend shuttle model has eight places; another has twelve places. Every traveller needs one place. What do we know? What are we trying to find? Make marks, move paper pieces, point, sign, talk or type. Give the quantities their own labels before you calculate. Here is one worked example: 48 ÷ 8 = 6; 48 ÷ 12 = 4. 6 eight-place models or 4 twelve-place models. Both seat exactly 48; four models meets the stated goal of using fewer models. Now look back at the brief. Does our answer count the right thing and meet the supplied conditions? If the purpose changes to using the eight-place models already available, six may be a sensible choice. Mathematical validity and a practical preference need separate reasons. Take your time. Choose one of today's new briefs and make your own plan. A different correct strategy is welcome. Explain one check and one useful conclusion.
