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.

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.

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
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.
