St Ives Junior School Maths Challenge - Week 3 Bug World Cup

The first ever mini beast 5 a side world cup football tournament is being held in South Africa in June, there are 4 teams: beetles, spiders, woodlice and centipedes. Each team has 5 players and 3 substitutes. As kit sponsor Mr. Nikey is generously providing all the boots for the players, Toad (the referee provides his own boots). If beetles have 6 legs, spiders 8, woodlice 10 and centipedes 40 legs, work out for each of the games below the answers to the problems. Remember the strategies that your teachers have taught you such as 'RUCSAC'. Be 'RESILIENT' and give it your best efforts! Don't forget to print off your special certificate and share with Mr Middlemore. Try and use the written methods and strategies that your teacher has taught you!
