Four fours math puzzle this week. Kids are having to use only 4 4's to make any number, 1-100, using any operation. Apparently, they are learning math on crack. Love how just about nearly every sight enthused at how popular this was--popular with whom? Mathematicians? Thought so.

Anyways, they are apparently working on this for the entire week. Why? I have no idea other than to make them see numbers in a different light and be creative with them. Hunted around looking for the point of it for a bit this morning. Spotted someone on another CT site that will go unnamed (moon loving rest stop) talking about the 4444 math puzzle (just rehashing what it is)--irony. Week long of staring at 4's, maybe the point is to see 4's in their sleep. lol
