Math Strategies

Room 13 has been reflecting on the different math strategies we know to solve problems.  We are learning to use the best strategy in order to solve the problem in the most efficient way.
Can you name the strategies we have used?  Can you use any other strategy to solve the problems?

QR Code Research

Our Topic this term is Under the Sea.  To engage our curiosity we used our ipod touches to read QR codes that had been set up around the senior block.  Each QR code took us to a website with relevant information, from which we had to write down 3 facts.  It was an interesting way to learn and awesome fun!

Voice Thread ICT

Room 13 is getting good at using Voice Thread to help us learn, ka pai!

Subtraction voicethread

We are learning how to use voicethread properly.

Athletic Champions - in the making!

Over the last couple of weeks the seniors have been practicing lots of track and field activities - long jump, high jump, sprints, relays and throwing skills.  We know that practice makes progress!  We're looking forward to our school athletics day in Week 4.

Learning with Voice Thread

In order to make our voice thread we had to first work in groups to explain an addition strategy to each other and then make sure everyone in our group understood it.
