Victorian Tea Party!

We've spent a fraction of this week baking!   We used our knowledge of multiplying fractions to scale up a Victoria Sponge Cake recipe and we learnt all about where Victoria Sponge came from, before pulling our sleeves up and baking!  

What did you learn about Victoria Sponge Cake?   How did it help you with your understanding of fractions?

Tricky Tarsia Puzzles

We were using our knowledge of multiplying fractions to try and solve tarsia puzzles.  

"The final puzzle was really hard because we had to write the questions down first, so that we didn't get confused!" said Amisha, 5 Blue. 

What did you think of the challenge? Would you have any tips or tricks for someone trying to complete the same problem?
