About Me

Hi, My name is Sam and I am a Year 5 student at Mt Carmel School. I wanted to participate in the Summer Blogging as I was with my mum when Rachel came to talk to her class. I asked my mum if I can join. Finally she agrees and I am very keen to journey through with so many children around New Zealand.

My Fraction Problem

Tuesday 3rd September 2013
L.I- I am learning about division problems that has fraction as the answer.
Can you solve my problem?
I have 4 kiwifruits. I want to share it to 5 people. 
How many kiwifruits do they have altogether?
I cut all of the kiwifruits into fifths.

1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4=4/5
Now each person has 4/5 altogether.

Fractions

In Maths this week I have been learning how to put unit fractions in order from smallest to biggest.
Example-  A red wizard drank one quarter of a jug of magic juice. A blue wizard drank one fifth of a jug of the same juice. Which wizard drank the most? 
Answer- Red wizard drank the most. I know my answer is correct because the bigger the denominator  gets the smaller the fraction sizes get.

Maxine number group week 9 term 1


TUESDAY:   
We are learning to solve addition problems to 100 by counting on in my head and show it on a number line.
1, 63 +  5 =68

2. 3 +  15 =18

3. 19 + 4 =23

4.       41 + 6 =46

5.     33 + 8 =  41

Week 1 Number Group

WEEK 1
Learning Intention1.  We are learning to recall number combination that make 5

2.  We are learning to recall combinations that make ten

3  Solve simple addition (joining, change, or  comparing) problems to 100  by counting on in their heads in ones.
Task/ActivityN0. 1 & 2  -  Use counters and fingers.
                   card game - salute
                   dice game

No. 3    How do we work out these problems.

9 + 2 = †12                       8 + 4 = 12  

14 + 3 = †, 17                    25 + 4 = †, 29

99 + 5 = †,104                     77 + 4 = †, 81

8 + †  3        = 11,                     15 + †     4       = 19,

67 + †  5      = 72,                    89 + †      7      = 96

14 is how many more than 8? 6
33 is how many more than
27? 6
74 is how many more than
69? 5
Practise basic addition - complete all the yellow level.  Save a link to your blog.

IndicatorsCan you solve addition by counting on from the bigger number?

I can complete basic fact at stage 4 and 5
