Maths test

Description:We had to do a stage 4 and 5 math test so we could find our starting point for maths.
I found out that most of the questions on my page weren't completed because of time.
I need to work on my knowledge.

Purpose: To find out what stage we will start on for maths.

Area of maths: Maths knowledge.

My test: (Below)




My goal is stage 5 how many.

I need to be able to recognize the same questions but turned around, as well as how many 10's 2's and 5's in a number. I would like to prove these by the end of next week so I can start my next goal.
I know that I can achieve this because I can now recognize where  two questions are the same.
I know I am nearly ready because I need to be able to do it in 3 seconds and I am not far off that.

Set smart goals term 2

In class we have been looking over our reports and seeing what we need to work on over term 3. We found these goals in our reports then put into our own words.

WALT: To set smart goals 



My writing goal is to...
The reason I have decided to focus on this goal is because
I will accomplish my goal by... My next step is to link ideas within and between paragraphs. I want to work on this goal over the holidays and by mid term I should have accomplished it. I think that this goal is relabel for I can see that It is one of the missing pieces in my writing.

My reading goal is to...
The reason I have decided to focus on this goal is because
I will accomplish my goal by... My next step is to draw on my natural curiosity and see things from others view across a rage of genre. I can accomplish this in a time frame of through the holidays and by mid term be perfect at it. I can see this is something new for me so it may take that half a term to get really good at it.

My maths goal is to...
The reason I have decided to focus on this goal is because
I will accomplish my goal by... My goal is to chose the right strategy to use at the the time. I think that this is a realistic goal for me because I have to ask a buddy normally or the teacher. I want to work one this through the holidays and come back to school with a good idea of when to use what strategy.

Math sample

Hi. This is my maths sample. It is about our new strategy to solve hard times tables using our 5 times tables.

I think that I have done a good job on my poster. I also understand this strategy!


What? We are making a maths strategy sample.
Why? To show we understand the strategy, to share during our Student Led Conference.
When? Week 4/5
Who? The World

Our sample needs to be a balanced mix of explaining and entertaining.

Your post must have a:
  1. Title (capital letters for beginning of each word)

  2. WALT at the top

  3. Image - something visual for the reader e.g. photo, diagram, video etc.

  4. Description: We had to make something that would prove how we knew one of our math strategies in class. I decided to create a poster. I tried to make it look bright and cheerful so that people would want to look at it.

  5. Evaluation
    1. I think that I have done a good job on my poster. I also understand this strategy!


  6. Feedback/feedforward from buddy/teacher/parent


Examples of success:
- Pen and paper



This is my sample I hope you learn from it.

Finding the Mean, Median & ModePractice
Topic Index | Grade 6 Math | Intermediate Test Prep | StudyZone



Statistics which describe what is happening at the center of a set of data are called the
measures of central tendency.These are more commonly referred to as:
mean, median and mode.On the lesson page for this topic we worked with each measure independently.  On this page we will find all 3 measures for each problem.

A pitcher recorded the following number of strikeouts over a
12 game season:
8,6,7,11,12,9,8,10,13,10,12,8

6 7 8 8 8 9 10 10 11 12 12 13
Mode=8
Median=9.5
Mean=
  6
  7    
  8
  8
  8
  9
1 0
1 0
1 1
1 2
1 2
1 3

114/12 = 9r6 = 9 6/12 = 9 1/2 
=9.5
Find the mean the median and the mode for these values.

Maths

Today we did a project with maths. We had to see what we needed to improve on. I think that a good goal to have would be to try understand this more and learn more strategies to work it out!


SC: To learn how to find he mean median mode and range confidently by ourselves.


Can YOU help me learn some strategies leave a comment below!

Maths

We have been working on some camp maths lately. Why? We are going on camp! I have really enjoyed working this out with Grace. We got the first bit and worked independently.

I think that this maths problem we got a bit of help from Nick in the end as a great way to get us all engaged and excited about camp. We got a bit of help from Nick to do the last bit here is what we found out!

Step one.

The question. Look at your question carefully read it a few times.


389 + ? = 600

Step 2.

The strategy . Use the strategy below to get the answer. The strategy is just making tidy numbers.

+ 1 = 390 + 10 = 400 + 200 =


Tidy numbers are any numbers that end with 0. 

It may be helpful to under line the number that you have added.



Step 3.

The answer. The last step is to put all the numbers we added together you may want to underline the numbers we added. Look at how the under lined numbers relate to the answer.
