WALT: Solve fraction, decimals and percentage word problems.
This is a little warm up activity for this week's presentation in maths. I found this really helpful because now I am ready to start this week off with maths.
WALT: -Demonstrate use of new knowledge about place value.
-Add and subtract decimals to 3 decimal places.
This week in maths, we learnt about place value and adding and subtracting decimals. One thing that I enjoyed was 'the number conundrum'. I did a practise round before the one that you saw. With that, I didn't go so well. I found it a bit challenging at first but the second one, I was spot on!
This week our think-board was based around adding decimals. I used the strategy of partitioning. Underneath this text is one example of this strategy being use.
As you can see, I keep the first number the same and spilt the second number. I find this much more easy for subtracting and adding decimals.
This week our think-board is about adding decimals. Every time I use partitioning for decimals, I am always reminded of my important rule. Never spilt up the first number when using partitioning. I find it much easier when I use that rule. It helps me a lot so I use a lot. I use that rule to solve the 10 other similar questions.
This week, our think-board was all about adding decimals. Only decimals that only go up to the thousandths. I had help with my ten similar questions with my friend Htet htet.
