Maths - Games

IALT: Reflect on what I've done for maths
Kia ora and welcome back to my blog!

Today for maths, we were practising our : Multiplication, fractions, percentages and decimals. 

Something, I feel like I really need to work on is my percentages. Percentages are something I struggle with. 

My group was playing a game called 'Head Multiplication'. 

How the game works:

The pack of cards are split between 2 people. 

They will each pick up one card, and the 2 remaining people will multiply those numbers. 

Then, the 2 people with the cards on their forehead will try and guess what number they are holding. 

Something I found challenging about this game, was how fast we needed to guess our number. 

Because, some people in my group were really fast speakers. Although, I did enjoy the game. 

Next time, I feel like I need to work more on saying the right number than guessing it - (Because I wanted to win). I mean, winning is like my thing. 

To be honest,
I enjoyed interacting with my group, and it gave me a good chance to hang out with them. As, I don't usually hang out with them. It was good getting to connect with other students in my classroom.

I did enjoy the maths games as well,
and I can't wait to do it again!

Maths test - Gloss testing

IALT: Reflect on my gloss test
Bula Vinaka! And many more greetings to you!
Welcome back to my blog!

Yesterday morning, I had my gloss test done. - If you don't know what a gloss test is - It is maths testing.

The challenging thing about this test was, the fractions. Because honestly, I am not that good at fractions. But dividing, timing and place values are easy for me.




But, something that I really enjoyed about the test was, learning to speak out how I got my answer. And what strategy I used to get it. Because, usually I like using my pen to speak for me.

In maths, I think my achieving score was - S6 or S7.
But, I am proud of myself for hitting any of these two stages.

Maths was struggling, but it was great thinking deeply about my strategies.

Reflection on Maths - PAT

WALT: Take a test on Maths.

Have you ever heard of a PAT maths test.

Well, here at Tamaki Primary school, this is a website that all students use to do a maths test online.

Here is a link, if you would like to check it out. - ( www.nzceronline.org.nz) .

This website helps all students/people on any subject. It can be - Maths, Reading or maybe even writing. Something I found challenging? Something challenging from this online test, was trying not to rush myself.
This is because, you only have 40 minutes given, and in the given time,
you really need to think about your answer.

Down below is a reflection that I have completed.

Please keep reading!
