In maths this afternoon the children had a coded message from Cleopatra. They had to work it out quickly.
This is what it said
DWWDFN DW GDZQ
(You have to count back 3 letters in the alphabet)
Can our Quadblogging buddies work it out?
More codes to crack;
Write back if you work it out.

ReplyDeleteI love the idea of 'Choose where you want' Tuesday. Does this mean you can sit on the carpet or a chair? Or next to whoever you want?

shouldn't it be choose where to work tuesday not choose where you want tuesday
ReplyDeleteIt could be described as either Elle. The first "choose-day" we did back in November was called Choose where to work Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteIt's good fun Mr Harrison, they children always act sensibly and do their absolute best, wherever they decide to work.
Today if they were superstars they could be King or Queen for the next session and wear the Pharaoh costume. I had to decide who it would be. I found it very difficult to decide.
Who can think of a different catchy name if we did this on a Monday?
Gidaye Mates,
ReplyDeleteIt's Mrs Davey from the land down under - Epsom PS in Victoria, Australia here. My learning community (52 students, 2 teachers and 1 teacher aide) are very excited to be part of the quad blogging challege! We are currently laying on the beach, swimming in our pools and feeding our pet kangaroos! Just kidding about the kangaroos. We are on our big end of year break (6weeks!)and return to school on 2nd Feb. I will ask the students to start commenting then.
Please tell me more about 'Choose where you want Tuesday.'
From your blogging buddy,
Mrs Davey
Hello Year 4,
ReplyDeleteI've always had fun with codes and, yes, I have worked out what your code said.
Have you tried the type using say a 9x9, 8x8, 7x7 etc to make a code...
Look at this code...
WTINHISOAMIWTET?
It can be solved with this grid...
WTIN
HISO
AMIW
TET?
These can be sneaky codes when you don't know what size grid is used but the number of letters can help you guess if the grid is large or not.
Keep coding. It keeps our brains active.

ReplyDeletethe code braycinc was good fun and hard too
ReplyDeleteChoose where you want Tuesday sounds like a great idea!
ReplyDeleteWe have been having trouble in school getting your blog to work but we printed out your codes last week & our Y4 children had a go at working it out. The Y5's had a try on some iPads & it seems to work better so we will have another look next week.
Some were quicker than others but they all got there in the end.
Keep up your good work!

This Tuesday the children worked in pairs to solve some word problems. The tricky bit was that the numbers were written as hieroglyphs.
