Decimal Fractions

This week for maths class we have been learning about solving decimal fractions. We have learned how to look at the patterns of our problem and splitting numbers to make them smaller so they can be easier to work with. I found it a little hard doing decimal fractions but I still worked through it over the week. What It’ll like to do next is practice at home with my mother so I can improve more.

Rounding Decimals

Walt: Solve problems in multiplication and division that have decimals.

This game is called rounding decimals. I had to round the numbers to the nearest 1 to complete the equation. I am not good at rounding decimals but I gave it my all. I still don't understand how to do decimals so I practice at home.

Comparing Decimals

Walt: Solve problems in multiplication and division that have decimals.

This maths game is called comparing decimals. It challenges you into using <=> symbols in the right order from big to small. And the crocodile always eats the big number first. I found quite a bit of a challenge but I still did it. I got a total of 90% in my first go. What I'll like to learn next is Geometery

Reflections - Basic Facts Assessment

Today I got my test results for my mathematics. I did well in  place value, addition, multiplication, subtraction, division,  and also arranging the numbers from big to small. I got a total of 590 in stage 6 which is pretty good. I would like to improve in using symbols correctly and also writing numbers from words. I am going to improve in my mathematics by practicing with my mother in using symbols. Or even download an app to help me learn.

The next time I do my maths test I hope to get at least 100% and if I do I will be very proud.

Maths class

Here at Glen Innes school they love eating their fruits, when there fruit box comes. For a couple of days I have been asking the students at Glen Innes school what their favourite fruit is. I asked 50 students (mix of boys and girls) and I got the results. I surveyed the senior and middle school students

The students had to choose between the following fruits here.

The reason why i chose the subject fruits is because there are loads of fruit like starfruit, pomegranate, apricots and dates, but I was really curious about out of all the other fruits, what fruit do they enjoy best.I found it really challenging because I had to ask 50 people out of the school in 2 days. I finally got it finished sparing my morning tea time.

What i would like to do next time is try and survey 100 people out of the school including the teachers.

Dragon Attack

It was a ordinary day, children playing in the park, people feeding the ducks. Just what typical people would do on a Sunday afternoon. Suddenly a scary looking dragon appeared out of no where. Its eyes were flaming red. It had flames as red as blood and wings as green as grass. Everything in its path was wiped out by the ferocious dragon. Its tail was whacking everything at the back of it. It roared and fire came out of its nostrils. Everyone was terrified.

The Dragon breathed fire onto the wooden houses and they burned down in flames causing black smoke to roam around the city. Firefighters, police and even the army were alerted to come down and take the foul beast down.

They shot it with gun powered rockets. Blood started to pour out of his hand causing him to die. To this day, the dragon’s carcass is displayed in the  Auckland Museum.

Six hat thinking

We have been learning about six hat thinking. This is what the different hats mean.
