Exponents

Today for maths we were learning about exponents. Exponents stand for how many times the value is being multiplied. I found this activity quite difficult because I didn't understand the little number in the corner. I also completed a question sheet that had exponent problems. After I made a DLO using three questions from the work sheet.

Math problem solving

This week for maths we have been learning how to tell 24 hour time. Once we answered some questions we parented up to solve the rich task problems. My partner was Tiava. There were three questions, once we finished finding the answer we choose one of the questions to do a DLO on. This question was a cupcake problem.

M&M Presentation

Last week Mrs Anderson and Ms Kirkpatrick left to America for work. We learnt about the history of M&M's and found out many there are in a packet. We made Pie Graphs to see the percentages of the colours in our M&M packet and Bar Graph to see which colour had the most. Orange was the most and Green was the rarest colour. We all enjoyed learning about M&M's and eating them. My group especially liked watching funny advertisements.

Number Knowledge

Today for math John and I worked on a number knowledge. It was complected because they where a lot of questions. I enjoyed working on the because it challenged me and my partner.

Math Body Measurement

My partner and I thought that our height was not the same as our hand span. We thought it was false but it turns out to be true, we were shock by the out came. The thing my partner and I did great was communicating with each other.  

Maths Word Problem

This week for math  Freeman and I worked together to solve a word problem. We created a DLO to show the answers to the problem. The thing Freeman and I did great was communicating.  

Math Electives

This week's maths work was to figure out an equation on electives for a school, to do it we needed to use fractions and decimals. After I finished the equation I then just added in the answers on the sides and the working out underneath the problem, during the time that I was working it out I was confused at one point until I realised that because I'd thought that there were only 24 students I done the problem wrong. I then quickly just re-read the first part of it and realised my mistake, after that I then proceeded to finish the problem.

Blog Post Record

This is my blog post record from 2014 - 2017. I think I have improved a lot since I started back in 2014. I made a bar graph for how many blog posts I have published each year. In 2017 I posted 101 blog posts which is the most I have did in a year. My goal is to reach 500 blog posts by the end of this year, thank you for viewing my blog and make sure to leave good feedback.

Maths Strategy - Screencastify

Affonso, Harlem and I have created this screencastify to explain the strategy we used to find the answer to this maths question. Using our times tables was easier than using repeated addition. We were able to find the answer quickly without loosing count. I think we all collaborated really well.

Screencastify Lite

Last week LS2 was learning how to plan a screen cast and also how to record our learning on screencastify. The screenshot above shows my maths strategy for multiplication. The audio section is a recording of my script. On Friday Mrs Grant taught LS2 how to download screencastify, how to log in, and how to record our learning. The link in my planning template is the link to my DLO.

Transum Nim

Today I chose to play Nim because my friends was playing it and I wanted to challenge him. The challenge was to see who would finished the game first. Unfortunately for Freeman and Affonso I won.

Flex Tangle A3

This week for maths we did Flex Tangle this is my A3 flex tangle, It was fun making it because it was challenge and the hard thing about it was folding it. It was hard at first but I got the hang of it. The thing I need to work on is my folding and colouring.

   Today our group collaborated to create some fraction word problems for our friends to solve. It helped us think about the strategies we use for finding fractions of whole numbers, and it will help them practise their strategies when they find the answers.

My Strategy

Today for maths we did 21x15, It was fun because it was challenge and hard to figure out.
My maths group is Freeman, Brooklyn, Harlem, Jay Don and Me.
