Challenge Question of the Week During the summer term we launched our maths challenge question of the week. A question is selected each week and displayed in all maths classrooms, as well as uploaded onto our Twitter account. Some of the questions we have chosen this term are below - can you answer any of them? Farmer Fatima rears chickens and goats. Today she returned from market and said, “I sold 80 animals and now there are 200 fewer legs on my farm than before!” How many goats did she sell? One light-year is nearly 6x10 12 miles. In 2016, the Hubble Space Telescope set a new cosmic record, observing a galaxy 13.4 thousand million light-years away. Roughly how many miles is that? It is a race for students to become first in their class to answer this question correctly, and these students are put into a weekly draw to win a prize. We have had a range of winners from all year groups, and students have been really enthusiastic about the weekly competition. Maths, The Regents Way The maths department have now launched a YouTube channel: Maths – The Regent’s Way. This channel is for us to showcase all of the methods we use for different maths topics, and support students with their home learning. Next time your child asks you for help on their MathsWatch homework, have a look on our channel to see if there are any videos on the topics. New videos will be added regularly, and any video requests are welcome.
