Reflection - Maths

This week during maths, I have been learning to share things equally between people. For example:

9 Pizza's
10 People
I know that there are more people then pizza's. Not everyone will have a whole but PARTS.
Each person will have 1/10 so

1/10 nine times will be 9/10

Each person will have 9/10 pieces.

Maths Reflection

During maths, I learnt to solve "How many sets of?" and "sharing" division problems using multiplication (reversibility).

For example:

Jo had 9 muesli chunks. She shared among 3 children.
How many chunks will each child get?

9 divided by 3 = 3
There are 3 muesli chunks that 3 children got.

Maths Reflection

During Maths I learnt to solve problems like 28 + ? = 82 using a tidy number line then jumping back by a smaller number.

For example:
28 + ? = 82
28 + 2 = 30
30 + 50 = 80
80 + 3 = 83
83 - 1 = 82

Maths Reflection

This week during Maths, I learnt to solve problems using a number line or tidy numbers.

For example:

68 + ? = 104
68 + 2 = 70
70 + 30 = 100
100 + 4 = 104

30 + 2 + 4 = 36
Answer = 36

During maths I learnt to have a sense of measurement such as:
Length, Mass, Capacity

The unit used for Length was
Width, Height, Depth, Distance
The unit for Mass was
Heavy, Heaviest, Heavier
Light, Lightest, Lighter
Weight
The unit for Capacity was
Weight of something and how much liquid something can hold?

Long Subtraction and Addition

Today the site that I went on was a great way to help me in solving long subtraction and addition. This practice only took me 2 minutes when I thought it would take me 5 minutes.

Maths Activity


This was a test which I recorded myself. It took me 5 minutes to finish it to the 10 times tables. It didn't take me long. I felt I achieved this challenge but next time I will try to be a bit faster, under 5 minutes.
