Seven Flipped

As part of our exploration of patterns, over the past two days we have been working on the following problem.

I have given students the challenge to show parents, siblings, other family members, or friends how this problem works and what strategies they have used to help find a solution. This can be done over the next week or whenever you have time and nothing needs to be brought to school to show it has been completed. Enjoy!
*Hint: The diagram above shows an example of ONE move :)

Interviews

Just a reminder that if you scheduled an interview that they will be taking place this evening. Since I will be conducting both Grade 5 and kindergarten interviews I will be running from one room to the next sometimes. My Grade 5 interviews will be held in our classroom (room 175 - the old computer lab) and I ask that you please only use the door in the hallway (not the sliding doors in the learning commons). As well, please be mindful of the time as I am fully booked this evening and please knock on the door at your scheduled time. I look forward to seeing you!

Also, if you were unable to book a time and would like to meet, I am available most mornings and some days after school should you wish to meet in person. Otherwise, we can also schedule a phone interview if you would prefer.
