I NOTICE... I WONDER....

In Maths today we looked at this car park picture.

We were talking about the things we noticed.  The children noticed these things...
* there is one yellow car.
* the yellow car is going out of the parking lots.
* there are 4 bright blue cars.
* there are 7 spaces empty.
* there are lots of white cars.
* there are 4 people.
* there are more dark cars than light cars.
* there are 9 more dark cars than light cars.

We wondered these things...
* if this was parking lot.
* if there was snow on any of the cars.
* if there is more than 16 cars/more than 85 cars/if there are 36 cars.
* why there was only one yellow car

Miss Gargan wondered how we could work out how many cars there actually were?
We decided to count in 2's because it is faster than counting in 1's.  We got 71 cars.
