Today in 5B, I set some children a super challenge which was to work out if a baby was 1,000,000 seconds old, how old it would be.
The children worked together, applying their knowledge of tim, to solve this very challenging question.
Well done 5B, some brilliant work here 👍 Have a go at these challenges. Whoever has a go, I will choose a name at random and they will get jelly beans 😀
Bronze challenge: if the baby was 2 million seconds old, how old would the baby be?
Silver: if the baby was 500,000 seconds old, how old would the baby be?
Gold: if the baby was 23 million seconds old, how old would they be?
Platinum: write 1 billion. If this ‘baby’ was 1 billion seconds old, how old would they be?
Bronze children- what steps did you take to work out this answer?
bronze: 48,000,000
BRONZE:
The answer is 48,000,000
Is the answer for bronze 48,000,000
Nice unpicking and challenge.
Answer and Explanation: 1,000,000 seconds is equivalent to 0.031709792 years
