What is the value of your name?

Following on from our morning challenge...

Write a sentence or a group of words. 

Using the chart, work out the value of your words. 

What is the highest value sentence you can create? Can you beat the total we had in class today? It was over 1000! INSPIRE points available to those who bring in any work showing they've had a go at the challenge! Good luck! 

If you can't remember how it works check this example out:

1) Write a word - INSPIRE 

2) Write the value of each letter using the chart

I=9 N= 14 S= 19 P= 16 I= 9 R= 18 E=5

3) Add all the values together carefully

9+14+19+16+9+18+5 = 90

4) Choose a new word and repeat. 

5) Add the total values up for each word you've tried to get a grand total. 

What's the biggest value you can reach?
