Representing numbers in different ways

Today in our maths lesson we had to find different ways to partition a number. First of all we could do it any way we wanted to. But after a little while we had some limits -  for example we could only partition the number into 5 different amounts or one our amounts had to be 94. We worked really hard and found lots of different ways. Some of us began to work in an ordered way which meant we could work out lots of different ways very quickly. Some of us used dienes to help us find lots of different ways - it was a lot of fun!
