Today we had a very confusing geometry lesson. I had two partners to work with. It was Mateaki and Alfred. We worked on maths problem called Carries Cubes. Each side had 9 smaller squares. There was 6 sides. We had work on these questions below. We got the answers. We solved it by drawing dots to make sure everything was right.
How many of the original small cubes have:
three faces painted red = 8
two faces painted red = 12
one face painted red = 6
- no faces painted red = 1
This is a photo of Alfred, Mateaki and Me working out the problems.

Hi Sam, well done for persevering with a tricky problem - it was quite hard to imagine which cubes were painted! Your strategy of drawing the cube seemed to help you solve this problem, well done!
