Detective Trail

Contributed by:
Amanda Patterson, Debra De Gray, Samm Gillet and Linda Elsey
Age Range: 7 to 11

The children can use compasses, trundle wheels and string to solve Maths questions set out around the grounds of your school.

We have used the kidnap of a bunny called Fluffy for the kidnap victim.

The groups can be differentiated according to the questions set. Each answer can be used to crack a code to form a word which reveals the whereabouts of Fluffy.

This is a good opportunity for the children to leave the class and practice their maths skills, something we do not get to do very often.
