Welcome to Emoji Code Breaking!
- On a scrap piece of paper work out what number the emoji represents.
- Use your own strategy to answer the sums. Make sure you show your workings.
- You can watch this video, or use your own strategy to answer sums. Tidy number strategy video from teacher tools for a reminder. You will need to draw a number line to help you.
- Once you have answered the first code breaker, take a picture of your workings and answers and then post on your blog.
- I will check your workings and answers.
53 + 41 =
I used my Place Value knowledge and added my tens together first
50 + 40 = 90
Then I added the ones together.
3 + 1 = 4
90 + 4 = 94
My answer is 94
As you can see I used the place value strategy to solve this problem.
I wonder if you would solve it as an algorithm?
Or would you use rounding and compensation?
I am looking forward to seeing what strategy you use!
There are 3 emoji code breakers in total, so check tomorrow for the second one.
Have fun!!
