Facts/ Inferences

WALT : Infer {make a hunch}
-prior knowledge
- words
-visuals

This week we have been working on inferences, my group was doing the Three Billy Goats Gruff.
Inferences is when we predict is going to happen , from our prior knowledge or clues we can see on the item we are doing it on. 


Times Table Diploma

WALT : Recall my times table to 10x10
When you thought you could do your times tables to 10x10 then you had to sit your big diploma. You wouldn't get it if you got one wrong and you needed to get the questions all right in time. 
Next time I think I should get it in less time because when we were doing it we were listening to a division song which distracted me a lot. My next step learning is to learn multiples of numbers to 100.


Show not tell

WALT: Show not tell
-precise nouns,
-Simile, metaphor
-Senses

For this activity we had to write a paragraph from the picture and highlight what we can see, hear, touch, use precise nouns, verbs and adjectives. Also we had to include a simile or a metaphor, I included both. This activity was alright because we had to describe. My favourite part was making up the story. Can you spot any senses or nouns, verbs  or adjectives I have missed?

Problem solving


WALT: Apply our maths strategies to real life word problems.
For this activity we had to read each question carefully then decide what the key words in each problem are. Then we had to record the equation it is asking you to solve. Last but not least we solved each problem using words diagrams and symbols. I think this is a good maths activity below is mine.
