Maths with Rapunzel

Hi everybody!
Room 15 have been working on Fairy Tale’s and many other types of writing not long ago.
So my amazing maths loving teacher Mrs. Mellick has decided that we combine Fairy Tales with maths.
We were told to write out a maths problem using characters and objects from a Fairy Tale on our maths book,
but then she made it more challenging by saying that in order to be able to work out the answer, multiplication must have to be included.


Once upon a time,
there was a young girl named Rapunzel.
She lived in a tower with eight floors,
and each floor was 28cm.
Rapunzels hair was three times as long as the towers height,
all together.

  1. This turned out so well! You did an amazing job using a tool and app you'd not come across. I'm super impressed. In your answer have you thought about showing how you worked out some of the harder numbers e.g. 224 x 3 broken into 200 x 3, 20 x 3 and 4 x 3, then put back together? It was a huge rush in the end but if you ever want to rerecord, let me know. Thank you for sharing your learning.

  2. WOW Maasoama! This is a great tool to share your learning with others. I agree with James that it would be helpful to explain your strategy so that other people can understand your mathematical thinking. I might have to ask Mrs Mellick if I can borrow you to teach myself and Room 13 how to use this tool!
