Maths Week

Today I took part in the Maths week Challenge. I answered all the question correctly

Exciting Maths

W.A.L.T: find fractions of numbers

E.what is ¼ of 64
4 divided by 64 = 16 so
1 times 16 = 16 so
¼ of 64 = 16
Strategies:we divide the whole number by the denominator.Then we multiply the answer by the numerator.

This week, my learning buddy and I have been working on finding fractions of numbers

F.what is 3/10 of 250
10 divided by 250= 25 so
3 times 25= 75 so
3/10 of 250 = 75

Strategies:we divide the whole number by the denominator.Then we multiply the answer by the numerator.

Maths

W.A.L.T:Find the fractions of numbers
J.What is 7/20 of 60=
20 divided by 60=3 so
7 times 3=21 so
7/20 of 60 =21

Strategies:we divide the whole number by the denominator.Then we multiply the answer by the numerator.

This week, my learning buddy and I have been working on finding fractions of numbers

I.What is 7/9 of 18 = 
9 divided by 18=2 so
7 times 2=14 so
7/9 of 18 =14

Strategies: we divide the whole number by the denominator.Then we multiply the answer by the numerator. 

Book Week in School

This week was book week. There was a play performed in our school hall on Tuesday.

The play was about the Treasure Hunt that has been written by Craig christie.

There were two tribes living on an island.These two tribes blamed each other for stealing each others song.

The Treeland tribes was led by George and the Seaview tribes was led by jessica. These two characters teamed up to solve the problem about the lost treasure that was there song.

The problem was solved when there were able to put the torn map together and work out how to get to the treasure.They had to read three different books to solve the problem.

I really enjoyed this play because both of the characters were very smart and talented.They sang very well and were also very hilarious.

Thank you sam and Lydia for coming to our school.I hope to see you again next year.

Our tutors were Ema,jane and matt from price water house and cooper accountany firm.

I enjoyed all the sessions because the activities were very exciting and practical.

MATHS

  W.A.L.T:solve subtraction problems using place value partitioning
2 13 15 17
5.3467-2578=
17-8=9
150-70=80
1300-500=800
2000-2000=0
0+800+80+9=889

0 12 13 11

3.1341-967=

11-7=4

130-60=70

1200-900=300

300+70+4=374

It was easy to solve maths problems but if we do subtraction its hard like i can't take away 7 from 8 so i had to borrow 1 ten form the 10 value and then the 7 will turn into 17 and now i can take away 8 from 17 and i was using place value partitioning to solve all of my maths problems.

KIWISPORT

Today the senior school had its first Kiwi sport session for this term.

Ben, from Auckland Badminton taught us some badminton skills.We used a badminton racket and a shuttle.

We learnt how to hit the shuttle using a forearm hit and backhand hit.Ben also taught us how to hold the racket using different grips.

Today has been the best day because i get to learn how to play badminton and i can teach other people how to play when i'm older.

FUN TIME WITH MY FAMILY

FUN TIME WITH MY FAMILY

On sunday my family and I went to my cousin house for a party.They wanted us to come so we all got changed and we went off .We were walking and walking until we were almost there.We all stopped at the shops and we asked our mom if we can all have a candy and a drink and she said yes. So we all got our stuff and we we're off to the party. My cousin told us that we can swim in their swimming pool so we all got changed and we all jumped into the pool and we made a big whirlpool and it was so cool after swimming my dad told me that lunch will be done in 2 hours and 20 minutes. we were getting bored so we got out of pool and got changed and all of us went outside to play in the park and we all had some sandwiches to eat.


When it was the afternoon my dad told us it was lunchtime so all of the kids ran so fast to wash their hands and after washing our hands we all went to the table and we all saw eggs,hot dogs,chips,pies,drinks and cake. After eating we all started to clean up and when we were all done we were watching the bird box. It was cool and a little scary because all of the people that was not blind someone will kill them and after the movie was done we all went outside to play on their four wheeler and it was so cool we all lined up in a line and waited for our turn on the four wheeler. When it was my turn i was so excited to ride on it.


I was riding was it could go up to 315.74 km/h and that is too fast for me. When I tried to stop it,it won’t let me but I had to drive it around the park until it slows down and when it slowed down I jumped of the four wheeler and landed on the grass. It was dinner time we all went back inside and had some popcorn and candy when we were getting tired we all went inside to play some fortnite It was the kids vs the mom’s and dad’s and game was starting.We were playing for 2 hours the kids we winning but then the mom’s and dad’s was right behind us.

After we were done we all went back home and we all went to bed.
