This work is going to your next school.
There’s been an outbreak of Pokemon in Norfolk. You have persuaded your parents to take you around Norfolk in their car so you can catch some of them! Your parent says they will only use the petrol they have left in the tank which is enough for 250 miles! Your task is to catch as many of the pokemon as you possibly can!
Attleborough 3 Aylsham 2 Beccles 4 Bungay 3 Cromer 5 Diss 4 Downham Market 3 Fakenham 6 Great Yarmouth 7 Harleston 2 Holt 3 Hunstanton 4 Kings Lynn 6 Lowestoft 6 North Walsham 4 Norwich 10 Sherringham 5 Somerton 1 Southwold 3 Swaffham 5 Thetford 5 Watton 2 Wells 2 Wymondham 5
Each place has a different number of pokemon to catch! The list below shows how many pokemon are in each place. You have to choose a route that will gain the most Pokemon, without travelling any more than 250 miles.
If you travel from Norwich to Swaffham, you gain 15 Pokemon. 10 for being in Norwich and 5 for getting to Swaffham! If you then travel back from Swaffham to Norwich, you DO NOT get the Pokemon again, once you collect them, they are gone!
Recording your journey!
