Rainy Day Maths

It was raining at school this morning so I let the kids into the room to stay warm and dry - what a nice teacher!

Some kids sat in front of the heater and chatted.

Some kids got out a game of monopoly.

And another chose to calculate 3^10. 


Here's the working for that one:

Think we got a bit carried away with that one but the thought was there

What a great way to spend 10 minutes on a rainy morning!
