The following problem appears in Problems for the Quickening of the
Mind, a collection of problems compiled by the Anglo-Saxon scholar
Alcuin of York (ca. 735–804 C.E.).
A wolf, a goat, and a cabbage must be moved across a river in
a boat holding only one besides the ferryman. How can he
carry them across so that the goat shall not eat the cabbage,
nor the wolf the goat?
1. Act out the scenario with your group members.
2. Draw a diagram with your group’s solution.
