Odd and even numbers

In this animation Star and Hutch need to work out which of a set of three-digit numbers are even to find the magic combination for a safe. To do this all they need to do is look at the units digit. If the units digit is even then the whole number is even. Having worked through a series of numbers they find the magic combination and the clue inside the safe is a pair of shoes. This takes them to a bouncy castle where they are able to count the shoes belonging to the children on the castle in twos. The practical everyday situation helps to provide a reason for counting in twos as well as making maths fun.
