It was great meeting everyone last week, and having some of you have an opportunity to see how the four-block problem-solving model works. Please keep the sample you did in the classroom, so you are able to see the steps we use in class to solve problems. If you and your child did not visit our math centre last week at our student-led conferences, please feel free to have your child bring home the problem-solving organizer that we use at school.
Here is this week's challenge:
Blake just had his 6th birthday. He had his first haircut when he was 8 months old and he has had a new haircut every 8 months since. How many haircuts has Blake had in his life?
