FInding The Most Efficient Strategy

LI:  To find the most efficient strategy

  

For this week maths challenge we were learning to solve addition and subtraction questions. After we did the five math question we needed to make a DLO about how we solve the math problem and show our working out. The strategy I used when I was doing these math problems was algorithm. Algorithm really helped me because even though I got the questions wrong I still learnt something. I found this task very interesting because i learnt a new way to do math questions.

Fractions With Mr Fisiiahi

 LI : To learn how to use and understand fractions  

Today was the last week with Mr Fisiiahi for this term. This week we learnt about fractions. We also used the words twice,double,thirds,fourths, and fifths.We first played dicey. We first learnt about what is fraction. Then we learnt about how to make a whole with 1 part of the shape for example we had to make one whole from 1/4 and 1/3. This task showed us how to use fractions and how to part and make a whole piece of shape. The last thing we played was Frog jump and Tower of hanoi.

Blog Post Analysis 2017 2020

LI: To analyse our blog post data to help us set blogging goals.

I used the statistical information on my blog to help me set goals for 2020. Before I could publish a blog post I need to complete the task.I worked the average number of post I made for each month and used this data to set a realistic and achieving blogging goal.

Maths / Kahoot

LI : To create a kahoot using rounding and compensating to check our answers

In maths Mrs anderson took the pentagon group to learn the method, rounding and compensating. First we talked then we were taught on how to use the method in subtraction. First we did addition then we did subtraction. After that we had to solve subtraction question using the same method. After that our task was to create a kahoot using the same method to work out the answer for each subtraction question.

Maths

LI: To learn how to find a unit fraction of a set.

To find a unit fraction you must divide the set of object by the number of groups. We continued with fractions and unit fractions. We had done some examples on unit fractions and show fraction of sets.

Maths / Dividing

L.I - To learn about fractions

This week for Maths we are learning about fractions. Fractions is a whole object divided into two equal pieces.  We used coloured paper to make the fractions. Quarters is a whole object divided into four pieces. The examples are shown below and also the meanings. We had to write an meaning and and glue the paper to our maths books. We also had to eight meaning and we had to write how to do the working out. Then after that we divided a even number of beans and divide the number (12) into quatures.

Maths / Graph / Measurements

LI: To learn to record and to measure the fly distances for the type of plane.This week we had to make a paper plane and test it ten times to get a consistence distance.We could work in groups but we weren't allowed to share the same measurement because we chose different types of planes. 

Maths

LI: To use statistical and scientific methods to study the effect of wing span and area on lift.This week our task was to make ten  paper planes and measure the distance of how much it can fly. Then we had to make a google spread sheet and make a graph showing how much the ten paper plane flew. Their was a specific graph we had to make it on. It was scatters graph

We had to make a google draw about the mistake and what we should of done before we tested the planes because they didn't fly that far. The planes reached about one meter to two metres.

Maths Recap

LI: To practise math.
This week was all about refreshing your mind about maths.

What we did : We were practising addition,Subtraction,Multiplication, Calculating area perimeter, Division,and fractions

Strategies : Basic facts,Tidy numbers,place value,repeated addition, rounding and compensating,Written algorithm, and reversing.

Extra :  Adding we did time and decimals.Subtracting we did also time and decimals. Multiplication had to do with times table. Division we did grouping or sharing. calculating area and perimeter. Last one Is fractions. For fractions we had to identify and do sets.

LS1 RWC Challenge / Maths / rugby maths challenge

LI: apply inquiry, literacy and numeracy skills to learn about the RWC.

This year's rugby world cup is lasting 44 days and is taking place in Japan at 6pm. The task we had to do was linking to maths. We needed to find out what time it would be in different countries when Japan's time showed 6pm. For example: If it was 6pm in Japan, what time would it be in Australia? We had to find out the answers to 7 different countries.

AM stands for/means Anti Meridian. PM stands for/means Post Meridian. Anti Meridian means before mid-day. Post Meridian means after mid-day. We learnt that if a country is really big or large with multiple cities and continents it would have different time zones. 

Proportion Facts / WIP / Working in progress

LI: To learn and to also help other.This week of commission was proportion word problems. My group didn't really understand so we got a tutorial about it. When we got the tutorial our teacher suggests that instead of proportion we do proportion facts. This commission will be due next Monday. This is WIP, working in progress.

Proportions Problems

LI: To earn and look after money. This week we had to chose another commission to complete and get the money. But if we want to get even more money we had to get the speed,quality to get more money.Our commission for my group was proportion problems. This is WIP working in progress. This commission will be completed by 26/8/2019.

Maths | Ratio Problems

LI: to manage finances and profit by creating with maths.

 We are learning about how to use and make money by spending it wisely. We all have bank accounts and we have a opening balance. Each person gets a 50 dollar for the start. We have commissions to complete that are different levels that earn us different amount of money if finished. I am doing a game of ratios to test how good you are.

Adding and Subtraction Fractions

LI: To earn and look after money. This week each of our groups have chosen a commission to do for this week.My group had Adding and subtraction fraction problems. We also chose to make a game. Our game is WIP and that means working in progress. We learnt about fraction ans sets of fractions last week so we chose to make a adding and subtraction fraction problem. Their also a slide that has our photos of our planning.

Basic Fractions Facts

LI: To earn and look after money.This we we had an tutorial about fractions of sets. When we had our tutorial we had to create a game,quiz, and tutorial about fractions. For this task our group changed into two small groups boys and girls. The girls did a basic fractions game and the boys did a fraction of sets. Our game is WIP that means it is a working progress.Tutorial means giving people lessons about your topic.

Basic Subtraction Up To 20

LI: To earn to and look after money by creating with maths.This week was about earning and looking after money. We chose to make a basic fact up to 20 quiz on a google form.This task was to make money and look after it. first we had to had a google form to keep all our money. and we had a disaster form when you press go and then it will pick year 6 year 5 girls boy group people and those stuff. If you get picked then you will have to pay back some or all of your money. Since we had completed this task before the completions date you will earn more money.

Word Problem Video Presentation

We had to solve a bunch of different word problems we had learnt to solve throughout the year. We had to show how we solved the word problem. It was split in categories like  Proportion and Ratios which is fraction, Multiplication is repeated addition, Division is sharing, and Addition is putting more, and Subtracting is taking away. We then had to present one of the equations by showing how we solve it. I did not finishes my slide because i had no time to complete because i had to leave it and present to Mr Wong's Maths group and that Mr Wong had video us while we showed the audience how to solve an equation that we had already complete and to show what strategies  that we used to complete the task. There were 15 problem to complete in the whole slide.

Decimals / Decimals Problems

LI: To practise solving decimals addition and subtraction problems. This week for maths we learnt about Decimals. Our task was to complete a google slide that had decimals problem's.This week we were learning how to add and subtract decimals by place value. We needed to write down the answers in our maths book then we needed to take a picture and add it on the slide. We needed to practise solving decimal addition and subtraction problems. We then had to make a google draw and write about Decimals. We also needed to write down most information that we can get.

Identifying Decimals

L.I: to identify and count tenths, hundredths, and thousandths.

This week for maths we were learning how to identify decimals. We needed to make a copy of this slide and write down the write things / words. For this maths task we needed to work individually / by ourselves. We needed to show the teacher before posting this maths task

Paper and Plastic Fractions

LI: To relate with divisions and to identify and count fractions.
For maths we learnt about divisions and fraction. The task we did was that we had to do it in groups. What we had to do is we had to fold mini square  paper then we had to count how many and the unit photo and the last multiple  parts. Then we had beans and we had to do the same thing with the beans but we had to do a number sentences instead of  multiple parts.
