Using the 5x8 grid standing tall, find the longest pathway you can, travelling along the lines of the grid from the top to the bottom of the grid.
Then, find the shortest pathway that you can find.
Hint! Your pathway can’t go along the side borders of the grid and you can't go outside of the grid either!
Watch the next video to find out what to do next.
Turn your grid paper so it lays flat and you can see a 8x5 grid (8 fives).
Make a longer pathway now that you have turned your grid paper.
Make a shorter pathway.
Place your grid paper this way
Let's look at some observations!
Changing the direction of your path
You can make paths shorter or longer by changing direction.
Straight paths are shorter.
Paths which change direction a lot are longer.
Changing the orientation of the grid
Changing the orientation from vertical to horizontal changed the longest and shortest paths we could create.
Create different pathways that have exactly 12 steps.
How many pathways can you create that are exactly 12 steps?
Create different pathways that have exactly 15 steps.
How many pathways can you create that are exactly 15 steps?

'The Good Times' lyrics (select arrow)
Verse 1
Sometimes I gotta wake up,
Sometimes I wanna walk out,
Sometimes I wanna do something different with my day.
Sometimes I wanna reach up,
Sometimes I wanna call out,
Sometimes life is directing me...another way.
Pre-chorus
A road can lead you far from home,
Who knows what you’ll find.
Follow the signs and take a new way,
Chorus
Life can be upside down,
Inside out and outside in.
Life can be back to front,
Front to back and round and round.
Life can be on your head,
Out of bed, that’s what I said.
That’s why you gotta make the most of ...The Good Times.
It’s better than just sitting back and waiting in line.
Verse 2
Sometimes I gotta work hard,
Sometimes I wanna do right,
Sometimes I gotta be smart and think of others too.
Sometimes I need to think straight,
Sometimes I need to shape up,
Sometimes life is directing me...another way.
Pre chorus
Dance all night and follow your dreams,
Travel the earth and keep it green.
Follow the signs and take a new way,
Well it’s better than just sitting back and just waiting in line.
Chorus x 2
Life can be upside down,
Inside out and outside in.
Life can be back to front,
Front to back, round and round.
Life can be on your head,
Out of bed, that’s what I said.
That’s why you gotta make the most of...The Good Times.
Challenge!
Think of another song that you might know about being happy or that reminds you of a good time you have had. For example, ‘If you’re happy and you know it’.
Sing that song and keep the beat.
Think of ways you can use the sound of your voice and use movement to show how you feel when you’re happy.
