LJ - Maths Reflection : Fractions

This week for maths , we were given a task based on fractions for this week. I didn’t get to finish much , but I did manage to finish some questions. The first question I finished was this - Share 5 Chocolates amongst two people . It took me a while to figure  out but I finally got it .

You give two chocolates to each person leaving one chocolate left . Half the last chocolate equally and then give them a slice each . So the answer is

2 and one half each . I didn’t know how to write it in fraction numbers like 1/4 or something like that . The next question I managed to solve .Today , I did Task C - Share 5 pizza slabs amongst 4 people . I knew how to solve this one . Give each person a whole each which leaves one more pizza slab left . Divide it equally into four slices , Then give one slice to each person . They have 1 whole and a half each so in fraction language - ( 1=1/2 ) . The next question was Task D . The question was Share 7 mince pies amongst two people . I solved this one too . So , You give two pies to each person , leaving three left . Give one pie to each person leaving one left . Half that one and give a half to each person. So they have 3 wholes and 1 half .

I found some of the questions easy because they aren't that hard . Because I found that halving something that is part of the question makes it easier to answer for me .

LJ - Reflecting On Yesterday's Maths

Yesterday on thursday , we went through maths and I found it hard along with my Group - Math Survivors . We spent quite a while trying to figure it out . We went with a couple of strategies doing with 3 , 6 or 9 . We read the sheet and it said - How many people can sit at the smallest table . But we never knew what answer we would go with . Because Surprise , Surprise , The amount of people that could fit in the ENTIRE restaurant , Were 24 . We tried many attempts but , when Miss Komor came to help us , It suddenly hit me ,

( Not literally )  that it was supposed to go in Four’s instead of Three’s , Sixes , Or Ninth's . I managed to get the right answer . Four were supposed to sit at the smallest table . Then at the middle sized table , 8 were supposed to sit there , And at the biggest table , Twelve were supposed to sit there  . A little back and forth happened because , they weren’t sure . I decided to explain it - 8+4+12 = 24 . Why ? - 8+4=12 +12 = 24 .

Tevita’s answer was a little different . So was everyone else’s . We finally went with 24 because after all , that was the answer . Gary’s Group and my group put up their hands because both of us got it too. And Monita’s group got it before my group did .

After all this time we got it right .

The Question  Was - The Pizza place has three tables . The biggest one seats three times as many people as the smallest one. The middle sized table seats twice as many people as the smallest one . On Tuesday Night , Three-quarters of the seats were taken . Then twelve more people arrived . Unfortunately there were only enough seats for half of them .

How many people can sit at the smallest table.? You Already know the answer’s 24 . Can you come up with any problem that reaches this number ?

LJ - Reflection About Today's Maths

Today For Maths , We answered some questions related to our time tables , and also had to crack some codes related to ANZAC . My First sheet was kind of easy . The Code too was easy for the first sheet . The second codes were kind of hard for me . I managed to finish the time tables sort of fast . The code got harder of course . And the time tables too . I actually had to figure it out instead of speeding it and getting it . I did that for the first two because I knew the answers to the questions on the sheet. I managed to finish all three all though the answers took a while . One thing I found fun , was that for the last code , It was the meaning of ANZAC

( Australia and New Zealand Army Corps ) - ANZAC .  If you didn’t know . It had taken a while because , I had to look at the numbers and then the letters under them over and over again . That’s what had taken me quite a while . I managed to get the work done . The codes were all based on ANZAC . The time tables , was an extra piece of work we had to finish.

LJ - My Writing About The School Values

WALT : Write about the school values and Use the S.E.E Structure to define what they mean .

Rangimarie  

My Statement - Means peace , Or , Show peace to others and Everyone .

Explanation - When you show peace towards others , They’ll show the same thing to you . Peace can also be made through a Truce . If people that hate each other just want them and their people to live normally without any conflict between others .It can also mean Harmony . Because of the whole peace Value .

Example - Showing peace towards others can also be given right back to you . Like for example , Two people that hate each other just want to stop the conflict going on between them and others . Once they agree to something , They’ll leave each other alone and find peace .

Manaakitanga

Statement - It means showing kindness and respect to others .

Explanation - Showing kindness and respect to others can mean something big . Respecting Others  - . Respecting others can mean like , Their Privacy , Their Life , and Themselves for who they are . Kindness means , Like to appreciate others even if they are different .

Example - Showing kindness and respect towards others can probably turn into friendship . If that happens , You both appreciate each other for who you are . Respect can mean , No conflict between others .

Ako

Statement - It means , like teachers are the learners and the learners are the teachers .

Explanation - It means to Learn , Create and Share . To learn , read what you are about to write about . If it is easy to understand then create something that will be easy to explain . To Share , you must blog your work to the world for everyone to view .

Example - When you blog , You get comments .They can be positive or negative comments . Most of the negative ones might be stuff you need to work on .  Don’t take the comments seriously .  Just take them and think about what you could work on .

Whanaungatanga  

Statement - It means Demonstrating and encouraging positive relationships .

Explanation - Encouraging others can be great . Because if your encouraging a person , You can also give the person Confidence .Then they can go out there and present something . Encouraging positive relationships , Can mean keeping friends from Walking out on each other .

For Example - When someone needs to present something , Like a speech . Encourage them to do it . Because sometimes they don’t want to do it . If you give them courage , they’ll have the confidence to go up on the stage or present to the class

Tukumarie

Statement - It means to Celebrate and appreciate differences .

Explanation - Tukumarie means Tolerance . It also means to appreciate others  differences  Even if they aren’t the same .  Tolerance also means to appreciate their opinions of things or behaviour .
