This short clip poses a mathematical problem on multiplication and presents a real-life context for problem-solving. It is ideal for use as a lesson starter in KS2 maths. The problem: A pig is entering the Most Glamorous Pig of The Year competition and hopes to win first prize. To help to brighten her complexion, she is planning to buy lots of apples from the grocer's shop. The grocer is selling several boxes of apples, each costing the same, but each containing different numbers of bags of apples: Box 1 - 5 bags - 5 apples per bag; Box 2 - 4 bags - 6 apples per bag; Box 3 - 2 bags - 11 apples per bag; Box 4 - 5 bags - 3 apples per bag; Box 5 - 7 bags - 4 apples per bag; Box 6 - 8 bags - 2 apples per bag. Mrs. Piggy wants to buy the box that contains the most apples. Which box should she buy? See the accompanying teachers' notes for suggested extension activities.
