Spiders and Flies - Rich Maths Tasks
Rich Maths Task Conversation
22
legs can be seen on the spider web. There are flies and spiders. How many flies and spiders are on the
web?
Mikaela “
I think we have too many legs. We could take those two extra legs out. Cut
them.”
Aotea “ We could take the
spider out.”
Mikaela “No that would wreck
it.”
Aotea “Maybe take the spider
out and put a different one in.
Ok let’s count.”
“Maybe I could fold it” (Two legs are
hidden from view.”)
Mikaela “Maybe we could take a
spider out. We could try some flies. Try one.”
Aotea takes out the spider and puts in a
fly.
They count. Success 2 spiders and 1 fly makes 22 legs. Great 'think, pair, share'.
