Form Responses

 WALT: To analyse results.

For Distance Learning we have been making forms and sending them to each other.  My form was What is your favourite type of movie?  24 people responded.  It was a fun task to do and I liked seeing the results.  I did it on Google Forms.  These are the results.

  What would you choose?  Let me know in the form!

New Zealand Money.

 WALT: Research the history of New Zealand Money.

Today in maths we had to research the history of New Zealand money.  It was challenging at times but fun to research the history.  I liked doing it because I learnt a lot about money and the people that are on the notes.  I researched on google and this site.  It took me a while to do but I enjoyed it.   I did it on a google drawing.  Here it is.

What do you know about our currency?

How to work out 7x7000

 WALT: To make a DLO about how to work out 7x7000.

In Maths we had to make a DLO (Digital Learning Object) about how to work out 7 x 7000.  I did it on google drawings.  It was really fun to do because I already knew the answer for the question. Here is the google drawing.  Please comment on this post (nice comments please) and look for more.

What are some ways to work out 7 x 7000 that you know?

How to work out our six, seven and eight times tables using our five times tables.

 WALT:How to work out our six, seven and eight times tables using our five times tables.

In maths we had to learn a new strategy.  We had to learn to work out our six, seven and eight times tables using our five times tables.  Then we had to represent our work on a google drawing and post to our blog.  I made a screencastify with my friend.  Here it is.  Do you know any other strategy's?

Area

WALT: Calculate the area of shapes by knowing the perimeter.

In maths we had to calculate the area of shapes by knowing the perimeter.

I found it sort of fun sort of not fun.

 Do you know the difference between area and perimeter?

Mystical Maths

WALT: To answer questions using a spaced out strategy.

This week for maths we had to answer questions using a spaced out strategy.   It was quite easy to do because the questions were easy.  I answered the questions on google drawings and took a screenshot of it.

Can you tell me other strategy's?

734-416

700+30+4  minus

400+10+6

= 3     2    2

734-416= 322

Old school method for maths

WALT:  To answer questions using a old school method.

Today in maths we had to answer questions using a strategy that carries the one.    It was hard because the questions were long.  I did it on google drawings and I took a screenshot of it.   This is how you do the strategy . So you put the highest number at the top ( in this case 5383) and the low number at the bottom. Then you add. 3+8=11. That is bigger than 10 so you need to put the 1 underneath the 3 and the 8 and put the 1 above. Then add the next numbers and plus 1. Then add the next 1, carry the 1 and keep doing it. Then you have the answer!

Do you know other strategy's?  

Marvellous Maths

WALT: We are learning that problems like 34 + ? = 51 and 51 - 34 = ? have the same answer.

Today I had to work out these questions using the strategy.

I worked with one of my best friends. Do you like our google drawing?

Maths

WALT: To work out a question using a different strategy.  [Other than using number lines]
Today in maths we had to work out a question without using a number line.  Instead we used a different strategy.  It was hard because I was actually was doing a different strategy for the first three questions.   I did another question in the right strategy and I took a photo of it.  I inserted the photo in here.   Do you have a strategy you like using to help you?  If you do what is it?

Adding numbers with out number lines.

WALT: To add numbers without a number line.

Yesterday in Maths we had to work out questions using a special strategy.  I did it in my maths book.  It was quite easy to do, but the hardest part was adding the numbers together.   I took a picture of my working out in my book.   Do you have a strategy that you like to use?

Adding tidy numbers without using number lines.

WALT: Adding tidy numbers without using number lines.
Today for maths we had to answer eight questions without using number lines.    [Number lines are the strategy we have been using.]  My friend Kate and I worked together.   We each did four questions.  My questions that I answered are the ones that are black with green around the edge.  What strategy do you like using?

Word problems.

WALT: Add using tens and hundreds.

In Maths to day we had to turn these maths problems into word problems.  Charlotte need 800 cookies for her bake sale.  But she only had 287.  How many more does she need? Kate needed  to find 700 hundred pieces of LEGO to make her Harry Potter set.   But she only has found 432 pieces.  How many more does she need to find? Can you work these out??

The class room

WALT to make a drawing of our class room in a different format.
Today in Geometry  we had to make a drawing of how you want the class room to look.  [we still had to have the same objects, we just had to rearrange it.]  Then the class votes on which on is their favourite.   Do you like what I did?  

Shapes around the house

WALT: Describe the features of 2D shapes using geometric language.  
 Today on Maths we had to look outside and inside for 2D shapes.  Then we had to take a photo of them and put it in the slideshow to post to blog.  So here are the shapes that I found.
How many 2D shapes can you find?

My problem solving reflection.

WALT:work with others to solve problems in a respectful way.
In Math today we had to problem solve as a group.   My group was Holly, Kate, Bryce and I.
I could not concentrate  because Bryce and Kate were saying Harry Potter spells too each other and Bryce was mucking around.  The question was easy and we wrote it on a piece of paper.
What do you do for maths.
