Week 8 reflection

Literacy

This is what the geckos have been learning for literacy.





I learnt about water and what the water cycle is. We are remembering to comprehend what we read.


 Numeracy


In maths I have been learning how to use multiplication strategy to solve problems.

Exercise 1
What to do   
Use the information given to you to derive the answer to a similar problem.

  1. If 9 × 20 = 180 what is 9 × 21 ? 189
  2. If 8 × 30 = 240 what is 8 × 31 ? 248
  3. If 4 × 40 = 160 what is 4 × 42 ?168
  4. If 5 × 50 = 250 what is 5 × 51 ? 255
  5. If 3 × 60 = 180 what is 3 x 62 ? 186
  6. If 2 × 70 = 140 what is 2 × 73 ? 161
  7. If 4 × 80 = 320 what is 4 × 82 ? 328
8)    If 2 × 90 = 180 what is 2 × 94 ? 180

Exercise 2
What to do   
Use the information given to you to derive the answer to a similar problem.

1) If 9 × 20 = 180 what is 9 × 19 ? 171
2) If 8 × 30 = 240 what is 8 × 29 ? 232
3) If 7 × 40 = 280 what is 7 × 39 ? 273
4) If 5 × 50 = 250 what is 5 × 49 ? 245
5) If 3 × 60 = 180 what is 3 × 58 ? 174
6) If 2 × 70 = 140 what is 2 × 67 ? 134
7) If 4 × 80 = 320 what is 4 × 78 ? 312
8) If 2 × 90 = 180 what is 2 × 86 ? 172

Exercise 3
What to do   
Use the information given to you to derive the answer to a similar problem.

  1. If 9 × 20 = 180 what is 9 × 22 ? 198
  2. If 7 × 30 = 210 what is 7 × 32 ? 224
  3. If 5 × 40 = 200 what is 5 × 43 ? 215
  4. If 4 × 50 = 200 what is 4 × 51 ? 204
  5. If 3 × 60 = 180 what is 3 × 61 ? 183
  6. If 6 × 70 = 420 what is 6 × 73 ? 426
  7. If 6 × 80 = 480 what is 6 × 81 ? 486
  8. If 8 × 90 = 720 what is 8 × 92 ? 736



This is how I worked it out. The question is 9 x 22. I know that 9 x 20 is 180, 9 x 2 is 18 so 180+18=198.


Cyber Smart

We have been learning about a blogger life cycle and on Monday, we made our own blogger life cycle.





We had to buddy up and make a blogger life cycle based around the monarch butterfly life cycle.




Writing

For writing, we had to answer questions and finish writing the story in a slide.

This is what the Geckos did for literacy this week. We made a flow chart to show the steps of testing Omaru Creek.

 It was very fun to use google drawings and make a flow chart with boxes and arrows.




This is what the Ferns did for numeracy. It was easy to work out the answer to the question.
