If this is the answer... what is the question?

Today children have been working hard to build their maths skills! They were introduced to a very cheeky puppet called Doc, who set them a tricky challenge for their choosing time. Children had to find as many ways as possible to make a given number. They could add, subtract, double, halve... Roman even decided to use a multiplication sum! Take a look at some of the children's CIP below.

Alfie, listening to Doc's tricky challenge!

Eddie chose the number 20 to put in the middle of his paper.
He found 7 different sums that all equalled 20!

Alfie and Harry chose two different ways to make 12.
First they doubled 6...
...then they found that 3 lots of 4 made 12 too!

Isabela loved this activity! She enjoyed telling Doc that she had completed
his tricky challenge, finding that 2 and 1 more made 3!
