Multiplication Poster

During maths room six has been working on multiplication posters. My poster is on the question 7 x 0.5. One of my favorite word problems is, if Jimmy made seven "J.J delight" soft serves and they all used 0.5 of a "Jim Bar" chocolate how many "Jim Bar's" would he use?
  

Algebra

In maths we have been learning about Algebra. We got booklets that started off with simple questions then progressed to very hard questions. I started off with a bit of experience but that didn't stop me from being challenged. Overall I learnt a lot about Algebra!

3D shapes

Lately in maths we have been learning about 3D shapes. I made a cube and 2 Pyramids. We learnt about faces , edges and vertices. It was nice to learn about 3D shapes instead of re-learning what we already know about 2D shapes. I loved making shapes. 

Pedes

This week in Maths we have been learning about patterns and for that we have been drawing pedes.  Some examples are humped back pedes, straight back pedes, dotted pedes and big headed pedes. Today we got to create our own pedes. Me and my partner created a dog-cat pede. We had to create a pattern that continued on with every pede. Our pattern was that the tail got one square longer each time. This was a lot of fun and I learnt a lot about area and patterns.

Subtraction Vocabulary

A little while ago we all paired up to make posters on maths vocabulary. We did our poster on subtraction and we put in 3 funny word problems for room 8 to solve. It was a lot of fun and both room 8 and room 5 learnt something.  

Roll an Answer

Today in maths we played a game called Roll an Answer. It tests the skills we have learned this year like rounding, place value, addition and subtraction. My group did a board about rounding.
