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

My Highlight At The Portable Swimming Pool

My highlight at the portable swimming pool was when I pushed and glided through the water without kicking my feet. I couldn’t do it properly, but I still wanted to learn. It was fun, but I didn't feel proud because I didn’t reach the end. My body felt the warmth of the water after a few games, I didn’t notice the water was cold. Then it was time to get out, the water trickling down my face. No! It’s changing time.

Netball

Last Tuesday, the Year 8 girls played against Balmoral. I felt nervous that my team might lose this game. We had goosebumps especially me. We began with warming - up then had our prayer.

Firstly Mele and Pam(coach and manager) discussed the Year 8 position. I was WD(Wing Defense). I felt cold outside but excited inside. We began.My opponent was nervous and shivering too.We waited for the bell.

Secondly the whistle blew, and the game began. I could hear the supporters were cheering, shouting and laughing. First Quarter, Second Quarter went passed. Then LIGHTNING. “Aargggh!” I shouted. We were then sent to the veranda. Shivering and shaking, I felt goosebumps.

They were pretty hard to me.
