Maths

Today, in class during maths time, Mrs. Naicker's group were working on problem solving. Our Learning intention was to solve word problems involving addition and subtraction of decimals. To warm us up we practised our basic facts with a mix of division, multiplication, subtraction and addition. Many people in our group scored 30/30. Our group also played hit the button, we had a competition about who could get the most division questions right. After that we were sent to complete our problem solving. These are mainly about subtracting and adding decimals. I have become more confident and faster with working with decimals.

Fractions/Decimals Game

This week we were practicing our number knowledge for our IKAN test. We had to play some games which fit our level, I had to learn more about decimals and fractions. In this game, me (player 1) and Nazella (player 2) played. We had 6 questions each and if we put the incorrect answer in, our points decreased. I really improved on fractions but I think I need to practice more.

Decimals and Place Value - Prezi

Here is a presentation I have created on Prezi independently. This is about decimals and place value and its meaning. From creating this DLO ( Digital learning object ) I have learnt lots I also watched a khan academy video that told me things that I didn't know about the connection between fractions and decimals .
