Jaya Tuesday 26th October 2010 WALT: Make A List Of Infinite And Finite. [|JayaMath Infinite, Finite.pdf]

media type="custom" key="6813011" Today while most of the team is out at Choir you are going to have to opportunity to enjoy the class 'fraction' maths games. I just ask that one student who has been in my room for maths, is at each game, so they can show everyone how to play. You have the choice of; There are enough packs for everyone to play games. Ten minutes on one game and then change over. Sort yourselves into a circular rotation.
 * Fraction 4 in a row
 * Fraction Loopy
 * Fraction Memory
 * Fraction Bingo
 * Fraction Reveal
 * and Fraction Exchange Subtraction [no one has played this game yet, s**o Lauren H**, I would like you to be the first person to run this.

Measurement: Measurement: We have been doing a heap of activities to support our learning in measurement. Read the comments and enjoy the photos, can you do something similar at home and upload it here?

**Capacity:**

We measured out different water measurements, then we added food colouring. It was really fun doing it in the math’s groups!! by Jaya **Length and Mass:**

__How to measure Length and Mass__ For maths we had to measure enough 20 cent coins to make $20. We put them in a long line and measured them with 1metre long rulers. After that we weighed the coins and recorded everything in our books and into numbers. by Jane __Converting between length:__ Well it is easy to change centimetres (cm) to millimetres (mm). All you do is add a decimal point after the first number [ do you mean a decimal point here Chantal?] on to the centimetre. Say if it was 387 Cm in m it would be 3.87m [387cm would become 3.87mm or 3.87m?] By Chantal **Perimeter:** __How to measure perimeter__ Say you had a rectangle that one side was 24m and the other side was 12m and you had a rectangle. What is 24 + 24 = 48 then 12 + 12 = 24 so what is 48+24= 72.

Please explain what the 72 is Jack. By Jack

**Area:** __How to measure area__ You have a rectangle and the top side is 18m's and the two faces and its sides (The faces) are 6m's. You have to go 18 x 6= 108. Remember, area is always squared and a squared symbol is a small 2 up in the top right part of the number, so 108 with a small 2 at the top right, beside it. What I'm really saying is whatever the number of the sides you multiply them together. By Lauren H.

Volume:



__ How to make volume __ We got given a sheet of paper that had doted lines on it that showed you to make a net. First we cut up the net. Secondly we folded all of the flap that said fold and glued them all together. Last but not least fill it with water and measure how much it holds. By Morgan and Dyson

Making Nets During maths some groups made paper nets and then taped them, then filled them up with water. This was to measure volume. by Chelsea and Daniel
