It is time to get those creative juices going again! Mrs. McBride is offering another opportunity to put your skills to work. Find out more details for this month’s challenge here – The Origami Challenge.

Last week’s card challenge encouraged us to use grit! There were many ways to solve the 10 card investigation – work backwards, start small, find a pattern, trial and error. There’s also a program created from the math equation – Order of the Cards.

Today you will need more grit to solve many puzzles. Here’s another reminder.

Do you have the grit to solve today’s problem, The 1-10 Card Investigation.

What I love about this investigation…

1. Do you know how to put numbers in order?
2. Do you need an answer key?
3. Does everyone need to solve it the same way?
4. How will you tackle the task?

Don’t give up.  GRIT is the key to your success.

Explore:

• Use the cards 1-5 to get a grasp on the task.
• Use all the cards A-k and try the same task.
• Vary the task.  Place two cards at the bottom of the pile after each flip.
• You don’t need playing cards.  Create cards with index cards.  Use numbers 1-20.
