During the recent spell of 'Remote Learning', we were copied into a Tweet about "Noggle". Now we'd used 'Boggle' many-a-time, but not 'Noggle'.

At 9am, we started our Teams meet with #Noggle , to warm up our brains, get us to talk maths but also just...TALK! (Also 👍🏼 for those early birds)

So, we looked at the information and gave it a go in one of our Google Meet sessions. We used the same layout as Lydia shared as the grid must be formed in a way that has mathematically correct calculations within it.
We shared the above example with our class; showing a correct calculation and one that is incorrect.
Our template can be found here.
Feedback from the children was positive and it lead to some great discussions. Going forward, we'll use it again. We may also get children to form their own grids too.
When the yelling from the math classroom across the hall turns out to be a self created competition to find more #noggle combinations than any other class and the phrases heard are things like “come on guys, just 1 more, we’ve got this!” ❤️ #teachershoutout #mathrules pic.twitter.com/OS2Bwn4JBT

But, not this...
A reminder that ‘noggle’ is a very old dialect verb for just about managing something, but with difficulty. As in ‘I could barely wake up this morning but I noggled it somehow’.

We hope that's useful.
