Solving word problems

 Another thing we have been  learning in maths is how to solve word problems involving combinations of things. You had to be able to write addition equations showing as many different   combinations as we could. 

Some people found it was useful to do your figuring out using a table. But not the kind of table you eat off-a mathematical table.

Here is my work.

Maths Week 3 Term 1 2021

Hi

This week we have been learning that statistics which is the maths of data. Data is information/facts. We collected data using tally charts and then we made bar graphs and dot plot graphs using pen and paper. Then, we used our computers to make graphs except I couldn't do that because my computer was being fixed.

What I liked about statistics was surveying people. I was OK about writing a title for my graphs but I kept forgetting to label my X and y axis. It was hard trying to write about what the graph was showing. I like graphs though because they help you see stuff that you had not thought about before.

Maths

We have been learning about how to use Compatible Numbers. Compatible Numbers are any two numbers which add together to make a Tidy Number 

(a  number which ends in zero).  We had to choose two Compatible Numbers and another number. Then we had to think of a word problem which used our numbers and give the problem to a buddy to solve. Mrs Ogle, our maths facilitator, said this is called 'posing problems'. Then we had to make up our own word problem. This is mine I made up. Jimin had six bts concert tickets and Oli brought four concert tickets. But then Rm got given one concert ticket. How many all together? 6+4+1=11. That's what mine was. We had to work with buddy's , my buddy's name was Cruz. All our word problem's were mostly all bts. That's all I have to say. I loved talking to you. Bye.

Measurement heads

Hello
This week we have been doing measurement for maths. We each have our own maths groups. In my group I have two boys and two girls, including me. First, we had to estimate the circumference of our heads, then we used a piece of wool around our heads and estimated its length.  Finally we used a metre ruler to measure the exact length of the wool. I learnt that my head was 51 cm around. 
Here is my measurement maths heads that I have done.

Times Tables Testing

Hello

This week we have been doing maths about times tables. We have buddies. My buddy was Joe and I made him do all the answers and work. The answers that I got wrong were: 2x9=18 , 5x8=40 , 5x9=45 , 5x4=20. The reason I got some wrong was because we had to say them fast and write them down fast too. The times tables that we had to do were: 2x , 5x , 10x , 3x , 4x , 6x , 8x , 7x and 9x.

Maths: Geometry Safari

 term for maths we have been learning about 2D and 3D geometry. Jayme, Kaira and I were in a team. We went on a Geometry Safari around the school grounds to see how many 2D  and 3D shapes we could find. Then we had to write what we had found into a table. You can see ours below.

Maths book

For Maths this week we read a book called 1 is a snail and 10 is a crab. We then worked in groups of 3 to create our own version. My book is called 1 is a slug, 10 is a caterpillar. Here is my groups book, I hope you like it.

Sienna's goals

Maths

For maths we have been working in mixed ability groups to solve problems. The focus has been solving word problems using place value. We have to select the correct the correct strategy to solve the problem. I have chosen two problems to show you how I work them out. 

I find addition problems easier to solve.

Pirate code

 We have been learning about how to crack the code first  we make or own the we made some actions for them here is mine:

Telling the time

We have been learning to tell the time. Here is my work
