Problem Solving

The problem was that the animals didn't like to be together.  So we had to move them so that there was 2 of a kind and 1 different in each row going down and across. Then the animals would be happy. -Megan

It was very hard to match them in each row. -Josh

We worked in partners. -Aliyah

We had to keep trying and not give up! -Mason

We matched them in their rows. -Nolan

First we moved the animals on a piece of paper, then we recorded our answer on paper. -Danika
