T2W9: Maths Tasks

Task Description:

This task was followed up by the last task which was "Hmmmm I Remember" looking back on what we could remember about things we'd covered for decimals . This task was an early finishers task. It was based on Decimals and Word Problems put in place together. It was mixed with different types of word problems money decimals and more!

Geometry - 2D drawings and 3D models

Hey bloggers! Today Room 5 maths class did some Geometry! We were asked by Mrs Ilaoa, if we could build/create a mini rocket using some square/cube shaped blocks! We simply picked out some cubes for our creation and started building! My one had six shapes on the outer side then 5 going down and so on until 1! You can see on this image here! : 
If you cannot see my image try zooming up!

Me drawing a side view of the building!

Anyways we then opened up our maths books and started drawing what our rocket ship would look like from different side views such as a : bird's eye view, a perspective view, and upside down view and more! To build/create a building simply put some blocks together and on top of each other!

You can use different colours and also make some patterns in your shape! I did also make some patterns with my shape by simply adding the blocks from 6 blocks, to 5 blocks, to 4 blocks, until 1 block

It was really fun doing geometry and I will post more about geometry on my learning evidence, which will be coming up soon.

See you later!

Thanks for reading!

Place Value with Scales maths group!

This week we have been working on our place value knowledge! We used place value houses, place value blocks and dice to help us remember the order of the place value houses. Check out our Scales group with Angels, Chyrus, Justus and Pou as they worked in pairs. The activity came from Miss Fepulea'i and her maths group. They had to roll 5 dice, order from largest to smallest, then be able to say the number out loud to their partner. Ka Pai Scales group!
