Interacting with decimals

WALT: work collaboratively to solve word problems.

In my group we were learning about decimals.As you can see there are problems that we had to work out, and beside those problems you can see a paper that has black writing on it and that is our working out. In my group I had, Uasi, Ana.l, Anna and Bryana. It took us a while to figure out what the answers were, but we still managed to work hard and get the answer. The letter A that was beside the Number stood for (Answer). we had only three problems that we had to work out and one of these problems that we found easy was the first one : 

4.26 + 7.54 =11.8

11.8 + 3.90 = 15.7 - A (Answer)

Our second problem it took us a bit longer to get. :

30.77 + 94.65 = 125.32 - A (Answer)

30.77 

+        

         94.65        

125.32

And last but not least was our third problem :

                                                              $9639.66                                           $11872.31

                                              +                                                           -

                                                             $2332.65                                            $1780.30

                                                                     $11872.31                                    $10191.91 - A (Answer)

Fragments & Sentences

WALT: identify and write complete sentences
For this weeks work, we learned about Fragments and complete sentences. On the last slide of this presentation, there is a piece of work from our wonder writing. My buddy that helped proof read it was Samoa.

Introduction to decimals

WALT: work collaboratively to solve word problems.

For this weeks work we got set a word problem that includes decimals, in this presentation you are about to find out new and interesting things.

Holes

WALT:  Inferring - I connect my prior knowledge to help me make meaning when I infer across several related clues in the text. For this weeks activity we were learning about a book called holes.  There was a lot of information in the book and I found out that there was a place called Camp Green Lake where they punish all the bad boys. My overall thoughts about the book is that I would get more people to read it.

holes 4

WALT: predicting - i am learning to make inference when the answer is not stated directly.

Holes

WALT: connecting- i make sense of new information before. during and after reading by connecting it to myself, texts i know and my world.

I recommend that you should read this book because it has interesting facts about animals we didnt even know excised and how it is at Camp green lake.

Holes

WALT: predicting - i form and test hypotheses as i confirm or reline my predictions during and after reading.

Holes

WALT: Self Monitoring - I monitor my reading for accuracy and sense and can adjust my reading when I encounter difficulties

Fractions

WALT: using talk moves to clarify our maths thinking .
My reflection on this was that i learnt what the bottom and top number of a fraction is . (E.g) 2/4, the two is the numerator and the 4 is the denominator. The 4 shows us how many pieces there are , and the 2 shows us how many pieces there are.

Idea City

WALT: predicting - I make predictions about the reading purpose by skimming the layout of the text.

Word problem

WALT: work collaboratively in maths 

In my maths class we got given this presentation with different word problems which were pretty easy. for the past few weeks we've got given subtraction and addition equation.
