Factors and Multiples, 2D Shapes
Key Stage: 2 ★★
If you count round the circle in ones you get a dodecagon. What happens when you count round in other numbers?
This problem brings out patterns in numbers, factors and multiples as well as properties of shapes. There are plenty of opportunities for visualising to predict what patterns will emerge. Learners will need to work systematically and to generalise, and the work done also often makes a very appealing 'finished product' for display purposes.
This resource has comprehensive teachers' notes and resources, linked from the problem page. This includes possible approaches and key questions, as well as possible support and extensions.
