Whanau Day

Last week we had Whanau Day.  Some of our parents and grandparents came in to see how we do maths in the classroom.  We showed them our maths wall (which Millie led) and then showed them how we used Studyladder, play games and practice knowledge.  

Look Around the Playground

Each math's group over the last couple of weeks has gone out in to the playground to take photos of different shapes.  They had the following criteria:

Here's a selection of the photos they took.  Can you see the shapes that have a line of symmetry?  Did they find any five sided shapes?

Maths Wall

Each day before we start working in our number groups we go through our maths wall.  This is a chance for us to practice the same skills over and over again! We go over place value, fractions, basic facts, time and a few other things.  Last week the students of Room 15 started running it.  Misha and Abby M both had a go and they did great! I wonder who will have a go at running it this week?

Maths Learning

In Maths this week, Ropere had a challenge to see how many different shapes they could make with four unifix cubes.  They took some photos of the ones they came up with (and there are still more they could have made!)
