Problems, Patterns, Pictures, Puzzles!

Year 8 students at MSCW participated in a fantastic Inquisitive Minds: Problems, Patterns, Pictures, Puzzles workshop, a hands-on event that challenged students to tap into their problem-solving skills. Working in pairs, students were fully engaged in a series of challenging activities, all while competing for the ultimate prize: a big box of chocolates.

The workshop was a dynamic environment where students had to collaborate closely to solve a variety of complex problems. There was a range of challenging problems to work through which were designed to engage their minds and required a mix of logical thinking and mental math skills. The classroom was abuzz with excitement as the students were racing to get as many points as possible, showcasing the use of their teamwork and their skills. The energy was high throughout the event, with students eager to tackle each new puzzle.

The workshop provided an excellent opportunity for students to apply critical thinking and teamwork in a fun, competitive setting. The atmosphere was incredibly positive, and it was great to see everyone so enthusiastic about putting their skills into practice. It was a wonderful and enriching experience for all involved.
