That's torn it!

Miss Scott cut out rectangles from one centimetre squared paper.

She then counted how many squares the shapes took up. After this she tore a piece out of some of their shapes to make a puzzle for you to solve.

Can you work out how many squares there were in these shapes before the bit was torn out? 

(The orange, blue, green and yellow shapes were rectangles. The bottom two shapes, which are pale orange and purple, were each two rectangles joined together.)

No sleep for the hungry ...

One night, when too hungry to sleep, Hansel and Gretel heard their stepmother convincing their father to leave them in the forest the next morning. "They will never find their way home, and we'll be rid of them," she said.

Why do you think the stepmother said this? 

How did the children feel on that long, cold night?

What would be your advice to Hansel and Gretel?
