Maths

On Thursday room 12 did maths. The porohita's are learning to use our 5 time tables to solve our 6 7 and eights and using our 10s to solve our 9s. Before I didn't understand but now I understand way better an example would be 7x7 you would split the7 to into 5 and 2 and the other 7 you would split into 4 and 3. So then you would go 5x7 then 2 x 7 plus them together and the answer is 49

Maths

For the last 2 weeks the porohita's have been learning how to add and take away on a number line. The strategy is  a bit hard. We did a test on this strategy I did not get much right, but that's OK because I tried my best and that's the main thing isn't it.  This strategy was very fun but I hope I get more answers right next time.  An example would be 35 + 17 =52  so I would jump to 45 then 55 then I would take away 3 because  you are at 55 and you have to be at 52.  35+ 17 =52.

Roman Numerals

For the last 2 weeks room 12 been has been working on Roman Numerals. The porohita maths group had to work with 2 or 3 people. We first had to do a draft in someones maths book. After that Me ,Melissa and Kayla did our good copy it took a while. Then we got to share our poster in front of our maths group. Finally we took a photo and a video of it and we were done.

I am learning to solve problems like 26+62=82 using a number line. We jump to a tidy numbers.

A tidy number is a number with a zero on the end like, 20, 30, 90, 40
