Square Numbers

Follow this link to practise finding the square root of numbers. 

This is the link for the the 100s board we looked at the pattern of square numbers on. (countersquare)

This is a good grid game to practise multiplication on. (Grid Game)

WALT draw views of 3D shapes

Sarah went home and practised drawing 3D shapes after our maths lesson yesterday. She shows real skill at this!

Some Maths Strategies

Olivia created a voicethread to show her favourite maths strategy and has added other strategies from around the class. This voicethread will be added to, so please come back and visit it. Even better, join in the discussion!

Find out more about voicethread and if you wish, create a voicethread account here.

Katherine's strategy

This is my strategy. I did an algorithm of addition. I added 256 and 355 together and got 611. ( see up top.) I have made it with a colour code (as you can see). Hope you like it!!!

Breanna's strategy

My strategy is a double and half strategy and I have worked out an equation to solve 18 x 5 with double and half. I have two equations and I have done it on paint !!!

Summer's reversing

This is my strategy using reversing. I am proud of how I learnt to use different strategies for a equation.   

Caitlin's Mathletics Posters

Sarah's Mathletics poster

This is my design, and I used a design with checkers behind it.I used a ruler. Something I was pleased with was how it looked at the end because it looks 3D. Something I could improve on is getting the squares the same size.I really enjoyed learning how to draw an  accurate square.

Olivia's Mathletics poster

This is my Mathletics poster. It is a made up  Design  in the middle and Design 31 round the outside. I had to measure the page and use my geometry skills. I used a Compass, Protractor and a ruler to do my Design.
I think my Design has lots of symmetry and I hope I come in a good place. I hope you like my Design.

Statistics Data

I was pleased with learning how to make a stem and leaf graph with numbers.
I really enjoyed learning how to add numbers in the stem and leaf graph.
Something I found hard was putting all the hundreds tens and ones in order.
Something that made me think was adding the numbers to the stem and leaf graph.
Something that I want to get better at is looking at the numbers properly to put them in order.

WALT: Interpret Information From Graphs

A reminder of the great work Room 18 did, interpreting information from graphs in term two. We learnt about strip, bar and pie graphs and how the same data seems different if it is displayed on different types of graphs. Some graphs illustrate (show) certain things clearer than others.
This unit got us using proportions, fractions and percentages. We were able to use statistical vocabulary such as data, categories and make and evaluate statements.
Most of all, we used our key competencies, working together in teams.

H & D (Half and Double)

Junathan and Raiha created this awesome photostory to show a strategy their group (The Coordinates) learnt in maths. They took great photos and and explained their strategy clearly. They showed fantastic teamwork (relating to others), creativity and thinking!

Number Cop

Another multiplication (times) game to test drive.

WALT know parts of 3D shapes

Our 'Start Me Up' for Maths this week is knowing parts of 3D shapes.
Here is a slideshow that can help you to learn them:

3 d shapes

Two Thirds

In groups we came up with different ways of showing two thirds. Here are photos of everyone's work and a video of the first group presenting their poster (Ben, Reanna, Yasmin & Riki).

Something I was pleased with...
