Equivalent Fractions

 L.I : To undrstand how to expan an Equivalent Maths.

This DLO showing was created to understand How to equivalent Fractions, We first understood how to use Equivalent Fractions also to expan, by expaning our equivalent maths we needed to use our timetables, and understand how we times it, for the question we were working on we understood how to times it by twos. I really enjoyed doing this task as I learnt my times tables. 

Adding Maths Decimals

 L.I how to add decimals. 

For this DLO , Afa and I worked collabortivtley , shared our opinions , to understand the stagatey we are working on, For our groups we were understanding the stragtey we learnt for the past few days. 

I really enjoyed learning this activty as I learnt how to use decimals also knowing how to use it. We also worked collabortivtly to understand where we start from and how we can get the answer. We first watched videos to understand what we first needed to do , to try and get the correct answer to the right question. 

Favorited Video Game

 L.I To plan and carry out a statistical investigation.                                                                                        

Today LS2 worked together in partners to analyse one of four topics. In this maths session we chose four questions for people to answer (what is your favorite colour, etc), and we recorded those 

answers on a piece of paper. Second we chose one question out of the four and used that for our graph. We used the data from the paper and created a pie chart on google sheets. We then created a summary of the data we had recorded.

Weight Challenge 1

 LI: To create a DLO to explain how we solved the problem. 

This week for maths we were learning measurments. In this subject we were talking about weight. The unit for measurement for weight are - grams, kilograms, tonnes etc. In groups we solved 3 problem challenges. For these challenges we wrote down answers in on pieces of paper. After we solved these challenges we created a DLO explaining our strategy and how we got our answer. For our strategy we used Place Value and a calculator because the numbers were too big for us to solve. In my group was Fau, Hosea, Jayden, Leroy and Diana.  

Learning and understanding fractions

 To learn how to group and split in fractions

This week is our last session with Mr Fisi’iahi for this term as it was last week. For this week my group and I worked on fractions and played a game called Play tower of hanoi. We also used Multi Link cubes to help us understand fractions and to help us solve the questions. I really enjoyed playing with my partner solving fraction questions. We also played a game called Dicy numbers which got us into parnters. This game was really fun and competitive as we had to see who was the first one to win.  Understanding fractions helps us understand the groups,twice and the double. Double means twice as example 6+6=2 or 6 x 2=12.

Statistics with Mr Fisi'iahi

 LI: Identify patterns and relationships between data

                                                                                 

                                                                            

 Today my group members and I worked with Mr Fisi’iahi, He taught us about statistics and gathering data. We then gathered all the data and turned it into a graph. We also learned about the different types of  graphs and which is the best type of graph we should use to represent the data. Mr Fisi’iahi helped us understand the meanings as an example we learned what pre-teens  means, Pre teens means 12 and under which means teens means 13 and above. We also used a data card to help us understand more on what our learning is about. The data card involves all the information we need to know.

Time

 L.I To work out the elapsed time. 

Today our group used the maths clocks to help us work out the answers to the elapsed time questions. Elapsed means the time that has gone by. I really enjoyed working with my team mates around me and helping them out and moving the hands around to make sure I got the correct answer to the question. 

Maths with Mr Fisi'iahi

 L.I: To solve and create algebraic equation.

Today my group and I  learnt Algebra with Mr Fisi’iahi. We started off by finding out the values of the animals. The animals we did were Piwaiwaka,Gecko,Kiwi,Tuatara and Pukeko. We summed up an answer then we  simplified the answers to make it easier to understand and explain what's happening. We created a DLO with our algebraic equations but we had to make the question unbalanced so that Mr Fisiah could make it balanced, we had to create for Mr Fisiah . I really enjoyed working with my partner and my group to answer the questions we’re trying to solve.These tasks and questions help us understand and explain what Algebra is.  We also learned how to balance the animals on a log or plan to make it equal and even. 

Making connection to problem solving.

L.I To explore problem solving. 

 

Today we had a technical problem with our internet so we learnt about tangrams. We were challenged to make a tangram puzzle out of an A4 piece of paper and a pair of scissors. We listened carefully to and followed the instructions to create our shapes.   Tangrams  helped us understand more about problem solving as we were challenged to turn the shapes into different animals .  Tangrams are an ancient Chinese puzzle.  Problem solving is about following instructions, finding a solution, asking questions, communicating with other people and working together to solve the problem. All things we did today with this problem solving challenge.

9 time tables

LI: To find the most efficient strategy to answer the question.

This DLO shows how Juel ,Heavenly and I worked together to get this task done. This DLO also shows how you can find the quickest way to get the answer for the 9 time tables.This   We also use different strategies to get the answer. 

Maths Game

L.I To practise defining maths vocabulary (Words)

To help us practise the meaning of maths words. Mrs Anderson taught us a game called maths word challenge. I worked with Diana and Pouvi on this game.  To play the game 2 players found a word from the maths word game,  then had to give a clue to the person trying to  figure out the math word who was sitting with their back to the other players. 

Maths Challenge

L.I:  To find the efficient strategy to answer the question.

LI: To find the most efficient strategy to answer the question

This week our group practiced finding the answer to written maths questions. To do this we needed to first find the numbers we were working with. We decided the most efficient strategy was to use our times table knowledge. Being able to find how many groups of a number made this strategy efficient. This activity showed me that I need to keep practicing my times tables so I have set this as a goal for myself.

Blog Post Analysis

L.I 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 can publish a blog post I need to complete the task. I worked the average number of posts I made for each month and used this data to set a realistic and achievable blogging goal. 

Using Exponents.

LI: To learn how to use exponents.

                 

This week we were learning about exponents. Exponents are useful because the example in our DLO shows that it is easier to write 3x3x3. Exponents tells us how many times we need to multiply a number. This DLO shows how we used our knowledge of exponents to collaborate share our thinking 

Basic Facts Boxes.

L.I To remember my basic facts boxes.
This week for basic facts I did speed demon up to 10 I had 4 minutes  and 39 seconds maybe next time I can get are faster timer as example 3 or 2 minters and 22 seconds maybe . I learnt how to remember my basic facts boxes. How I learnt is by Practicing and Practicing.

Maths/Measruing

L.I What is a Area and Perimeter.

This week we had to Measure 5 shapes for a practices with our teacher our task was to find 3 items in our class and measure them so we could find the area and the Perimeter.
We also had to write how we found the answer.
My Three shapes were Chrome book,Flashcard and Bingo Game.

We had to make a poster and write down the area and the Perimeter. 

We did this so we could use rulers and not use squares.

I Learned how to use rulers instead of using squares.
How I learned by thinking about the answer.
The tools that I used were Ruler,3 different Items.

Basic Facts Boxes.

 LI: to remember basic maths facts.
This week for basic facts boxes I did speed demon up to 10 I had 3 minters and 15 seconds I had 4 wrong next time I will try and get less then 4 wrong. This basic facts helps me with m addition and my subtraction and it also helps you if you keeping practice and practice.

Area and Perimeter/Maths

L.I What is a Area and Perimeter.
Definition for Perimeter-The distance around the outside.
Definition for Area-Multiply two side together to get an answer which shows the total space the shape   covers.

This week we learned about Area and Perimeter. We had to draw 4 different kind of shapes when we fished drawing the 4 shapes we started doing the measurement  and the addition.

We had a task with 6 different kind shapes that we had to solve.
I learned how to Area and Perimeter.

3D Shapes making.

L.I Make,Name and describe polygons and other plane shapes.
This week we had to make 3D shapes with Faces,Edges. We started by drawing 4 Squares that are connected together then one square on top of the middle square and one at the bottom of the middle square.
Next we had to cut it out but then our teacher told us how is it going to connect. We had to talk about how are we going connect the sides so it can be a cube. Our teacher said Tabs we had to go and rest start and made one when we fished we had to Gule  the tabs to the Face.

We could make a Pyramid. Our teacher gave us a hint the hint was that we could measure it to 2cms to the end of the edge. and then make a triangle.

Here a photos.

Basic Facts

L.I To Remember  basic facts.
I did basic facts boxes speed demon up to 5 because I have been practicing and I wanted to see if I could get everything correct I have go everything correct witch means I need to move up to 10.
Next week I will be doing up to 5 subtraction and see if I could  get everything correct
I had 3 minters and 26 seconeds.
