    Study Notes

    Number Play

    • Numbers are used in various ways to organize daily routines and solve problems.
    • This chapter explores using numbers to notice patterns and learn new ways to use numbers and operations.
    • Students are encouraged to list five different situations where numbers are used.
    • Children standing in a line, each saying a number, and then rearranging themselves and re-reporting numbers based on their new arrangements are used as examples.
    • The numbers are used to represent the arrangement of people based on heights.

    Supercells

    • Some numbers in a table are coloured if it is bigger than its neighbours.
    • Colour or mark the supercells in the provided table.
    • Fill the table with 4-digit numbers such that the supercells are exactly the coloured cells.
    • Use numbers between 100 and 1000 without repetitions to maximize supercells.
    • Find out how many supercells are there in the table.
    • Figure out how many supercells are possible for different numbers of cells.

    Palindromic Patterns

    • Palindromes are numbers that read the same forwards and backward.
