  8. Hello everyone! I hope your day has been good so far! For today’s task I got these results:

    For the first question I found 11 triangles
    For the second question I found 17 squares

    At first I could only see 6 triangles so I needed to stand on my chair (this actually helped) and work out how you all found 11 triangles. At the end I found out.
    It probably took my 35 minutes to work the triangle one out!!??

    I drew a diagram with 45 triangles, my mum found 43.

    Enjoy your day!

  9. Hello everyone ,
    For today task, I found 11 triangles and 17 squares.
    To find them I counted the visible ones, then after I looked for triangles perd up to make a bigger one .
    I did the exact same thing with the squares. For one of them, I counted it in the middle of the square and where all the squares where .??
