4. Fill in a nxn grid with n letters related n times with no two letters on the same row or column.
5. Dobble (scouts version).
If someone wants to run this on their #beavers or #squirrels unit, let me know and I'll make the activities public in OSM. I added the badges, etc
I it's Maths Week England this week and I ran algorithm based activities with my Beavers unit, blended into games.
1. Tell somoene how to build a lego they cannot see.
2. Pass water from a cup to someone else's cup with a syringe with the number of ml given by a die cast. The one with less water at the end wins.
3. Stick race. Add a stick to a line once per turn. They must figure out largest sticks will get them to win.

Elsewhere on the internet:
Yesterday at the launch of #MathsWeekEngland (in the new MathsWorld venue near London's Bankside).
Mum with child: "What do you call the type of maths that's here at MathsWorld?"
Rob Eastaway: "It's officially called 'fun and interesting' maths"
Mum: "Ooh, we love this sort of maths"
I'm making some progress with the #BeachSpectres project.
I've 3D printed a whole Spectre at the size I want for the final cutter, and this week for #MathsWeekEngland I'm going into three primary schools and asking kids to stamp out some tessellations š¬
This week is #MathsWeekEngland so I've been taking part in "Meet The Mathematicians" STEM outreach activity š§
Responding to questions from school kids about the use of maths in game developmentāsomething I wish I'd known about during my school years! š¤
