Activity Mat 44: Six Bricks Answer Code
Six Bricks Answer Code Activity Mat 44
© CPD College - CPDCollege.com
The Six Bricks Rocket as we have seen, is the key Six Bricks Answer Code item. It will be
used by children to show their answers to a sequence of six problems or questions. Those
questions can be drawn from any subject of the primary school curriculum. We have
seen lots of numeracy and literacy examples. In Science, it could be used for example to
sequence 6 stages in a particular food web, in Geography, to match six countries to six
respective capital cities or to place six significant events in History with their dates of
occurrence on the timeline.
We see a set of these Six Bricks Answer Code Rockets in every classroom, one for each
child. Some teachers may even choose to attach them permanently to tables with clear
tape.
Why? Because they will be used frequently each week within subjects to drive content
engagement, processing, problem solving, assessment and answering by ALL, not just the
interested few.
A class pack of 30 or 36 A4 answer rockets could also be stored on a shelf, together with
sets of Six Bricks and given out for the activities where a teacher is going to make use of
them as an answering approach and as a way to engage all children.
