Suggestions for use: The activity lends itself to collaborative working, both for children who are inexperienced at working in a group and children who are used to working in this way. By working together on this problem, the task is shared and therefore becomes more manageable than if working alone. A number of cross curricular links can be used to extend this lesson.
