Blog Comment: Room 5 Blog | Fine, Samantha and Shantay (3km to Tonga) - Tim

This was my comment made to Fine, Samantha and Shantay. Our focus was to write a blog comment to a Friend, PBS Student, Class Blog, Manaiakalani Cluster Blog. We also needed to have our spelling, punctuation, and to check if it makes sense. Our Blog Comment has to include positive feedback, information that would be helpful but not into a negative way and to have some sort of connection to the blog post that we commented on. I commented on their video which explains why maths is important in schools. I think this is funny and also very educational. 

Creative Collaboration: Why is it important to learn maths in schools - Evelyn, Tiare, Saruja and Tim

Here is Saruja, Tim, Evelyn and my video. It tells you about maths being important at school. I think maths is very important at school because when we all get older we need to know our maths. In the video it tells you the reasons we think why maths is important in schools. 

Maths Question - Tim

These are some of the questions I have heard or asked. These questions will help me make a lot of connections in Maths. 

Maths: Quick Writes - Tim

This is the question I answered for my Quick Writes

My Quick Write that I did about collaborating in Maths. I have written a lot of reasons why it is good to collaborate in Maths. 

Give 1! Get 1! - Tim

Give 1! Get 1! is what Room 5 did. We each choose a partner and tell them our strategy, we then move on a tell the strategy to other person. We have to have at least 5 other strategies on our Maths Book. I first started off with Oh SMar and then I went onto Zeba, Sajiha, John, Evelyn, Saruja and Tim

Revision Problem (2) - Tim

Revision Problems. This is my 2nd Revision Problem. I had to figure out how much Pancakes Halatoa ate. My answer was 12. I am not sure if I was right but I think that I did a pretty good job figuring it out by myself. The Question: 

Halatoa ate twice as many pancakes as Sebastian at lunchtime. Sebastian had another 3 pancakes for Afternoon Tea. Altogether they ate 18 pancakes. How many Pancakes did Halatoa eat. 

Grid Challenge - Tim

Room 5 played a game which we called the Grid Challenge. First we have 2 dices. You have to roll both of them at the same time. The 2 numbers that come up are the numbers that will be the times table question on the grid. We have to measure out the grid. The Bigger number is the width and the smallest number is the length. The point of the game is to fill up your grid in under 10 minutes. When the time is up we have to count up the squares that we didn't use and see who got the least out of all of us. My partner was John and John won. I had 39 squares I didn't use and John had 16 squares that he didn't use. This is a very fun and educational way to help us with our times table. 

These are the results that John and I got. As you can see we filled it up a lot.

Revision Problem - Tim

Today I learnt how to solve a revision problem. I had to figure out some few strategy until I got the right one. I think I really like this strategy and I am ready to step up to the next revision problem.

Word Problem (W6 T3) - Tim

Today I did a Word Problem on Division Algorithm. I had to think of a question and solve it my self, 

Algorithm (Division DLO) - Tim

I did a DLO about Algorithm but with Division. At first when I Found out about this I thought it was going to be a bit tricky, but then when the a video showed me I understood exactly what to do to solve a division question. Here I explain how to solve a division question, using an algorithm. 

Algorithms DLO - Tim

Today I did a DLO about Algorithms. I also did an example at the end of the presentation, I explained about to solve a difficult maths equation my example was 247 x 7.

Tablesmaster - Tim

Today I did Tablesmaster where I had to answer the questions fast, like beat the clock. 

Tables Conga - Tim

Today I did Tables Conga, where I had to avoid the x's and get all the multiplication which is in 7 and if I get all of them without hitting the viruses then I win. 

Beat The Clock Results - Tim

Today I did the Beat The clock,where I have to answer the questions really quickly and if you don't answer the question before the screen goes down your out and I managed, I got 30 out of 30 and I was so proud of myself

Tables Dash Results - Tim

Today I did table dash which is one of my Maths Times Table Building, my score was 72 which is impressive but I wish I would've gotten up to hundred. 

Maths DLO - Tim

Today I did a Maths DLO on what I did this week, which was using the strategy multiplication in parts with larger numbers. I had to explain what I did to solve on of the questions I did. 

Fast Factors Results: Tim

Today I did Fast Factors. I did my 12 times table since I know my 12 times table. I did that in 32 seconds. I try to do it under 30 seconds but at least I did it under 1 minute. 

Sketch World Results - Tim

Today I played a game called Sketch World. Where I have to jump on erasers to get them and then I finished the level, after that I answer some multiplication questions, I think it is about 10 questions. 

Cone Crazy Results: Tim

Today I did cone crazy the ice cream game. This one is a bit different and I did my 7 times table. 

Cone Crazy (Results) - Tim

Today I played a game, where you have to answer a divison question from optinal multiplication. I chose 12 times table and I had to answer the question and it would automatically go on the cone. Game: Cone Crazy
