Extract Meet Phyll. He’s really pleased to meet you, but you might not know it from looking at him because today he’s a bit grumpy.

Extract In your desperate attempt to escape the pack of ravenous dogs, you find yourself in a deep ravine. The rock face on both sides is almost vertical and you are far too tired, anyway, to even contemplate climbing your way out. To get as far away from the dogs as possible, you decide to go forwards – walking through the shallow water because you believe that it will help to disguise your scent should those animals return to hunt you down. This maths adventure comes in four parts. It could be completed over several lessons or given as homework over several weeks. The idea is that the children have to solve a maths problem before the teacher will progress to the next slide. This could be completed over several lessons. It was created using PowerPoint 2013.
