Maths Club has taken off in the Junior School

Over the last three weeks students from Kindergarten to Year 3 have been attending Maths Club on Monday afternoons 3:00pm - 4:00pm. A number of staff and parents have been on hand to challenge the students to visualise, strategise, and think mathematically.
A number of questions were posed that you might like to have a go of yourself:

PUZZLE ME THIS!

The seven symbols below look like some kind of ancient writing. There is, however, a meaning for each symbol, and if you can puzzle it out, you should have no trouble drawing the next character!

YOUR NUMBER IS UP!

Arrange 6 twos to equal 1. 

You need to consider all mathematical operations and the concept of fractions.
