Reflection about using all our strategies knowledge to work out problems.

Reflection about using all our strategies knowledge to work out problems.

Something I was pleased with was?

Getting four problems done in time!

I really enjoyed learning?

That  72.8ms is actually 7280 cm not 728 cms    

Something I found hard was?

Understanding question 5 because I did not understand that you didn’t just add 400 to 1600 but they do equal 2000. But I did realise when 400 and 1600 aerent 1600 apart but 1800 and 200 are and they equal 2000. I did end up getting the right answer. The question was : A laptop computer and it’s case costs $2000. The computer costs 1600 more than the case. How much did the case cost.       

Something I want to get better at?

Is using more than one way to solve a problem.

Decimal Maths

Today at maths we had a special session for Miss Hill. Me ,Thea , Josh L, Lachlan , Hope , Kharn , Libby and Ethany Had a maths session about decimals. Jaedyn recorded us for Miss Hill.

There were two  questions they were 3.5 / 4 and 6 / 7.5.
Here is how Me and Josh L worked out our answers.

Question number 1. 
First we gave each person 3/4s of a cookie. then there was 1/4 of a cookie left on each one. So that leaves 0.750 left. Now we need to split that. We gave each person 0.125 to each person the they have 0.875.                   

Question number 2.  

First Josh and I gave everyone one cookie each. Then there was 1 and a half to work with. So we gave each person 0.250 of a cookie because you get four quarters of a whole and two and that covers for six people. That makes my answer 1.25.             

Question 1

Question 2.
