Maths

In Maths today we had a task to do. We had 2D Cross and we had to make 4/4 out of that Cross, but that's not it then we had to so the prove that they were even quarters. Here this is my prove.

And remember to comment what you think. : )

Rich Task

Name of problem: Holiday Pay

Describe the problem: It was quite an easy problem, because I did it so fast that I finished it myself and was able to help everyone else in my group finish, and also finish my reflection before the math section was up.

These are the strategies and knowledge I used to solve the problem. (add more bullet points for each step) ¾ of $60 =$15 ⅓ of $15 = $5 $15 - $5=$10 $10- $4 = $6 6 goes into 60 10 times =10/60 = 1/10

Describe how you used 2 learning muscles: Interdpecdece: We knew when and when not to talk to each other. Making Links: We made links to what we know to solve the problem. Absorption: We were absorbed and got the task done fast. Capitalising: We use our time well.

Card Game

Card Game

In math’s extension we played a card game in this game where we had to use our brains a lot. It was fun because I thought it was a challenge and I really enjoyed it.

Who to play:  To start you need a pack of cards, shuffle the cards, then you're finished you put the top four cards down. Now add all four cards together, now you have the number see if it is divisible by the numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Once you have done that put those four cards in a pile to the side, when you have do that pick four more cards from the top and do the same thing again.

I learnt: What the divisibility rules are and how to use them.

Something I found tricky was:  I think that the tricky part was when we went from edition to multiplication.

What I want to learn next:  I think it would be good if I learnt my divisibility rules because it would be very helpful.

I enjoyed:   It was fun because I thought it was a challenge and I really enjoyed it.
