There is a lot to explore in this challenge!
Have you tried writing out numbers above 7 for each alien?
Can you find numbers that the aliens used to count the children in the classroom that look the same to the humans looking at the masks?
Do let us know what you discover.Please don't worry that your solution is not "complete" - we'd like to hear about anything you have tried.
Teachers - you might like to send a summary of your children's work.
