This week for reading we were to do a infographic explaining what Matariki was. Here is mine.
Welcome to this new blog post! This week we were working the Fantastics! But what are they?
As you see up top, those are the Fantastics. The task we were to do was read through an article of our choice and highlight words and sentences the colour of the Fantastics. If the word was excited or sad then it would be highlighted red as a feeling which is first on the fantastic rainbow. There were also some images of what made an article so for example the headline, strap line and more. The article I read was about teaching Te Reo in schools. Here is a screenshot of what I've done.
This time my goal was Use a broad range of mental strategies to solve addition and subtraction problems.
The strategies were Equal adjustment, Place Value and Reversibility .
My favourite was probably Place value because it was the easiest for me.
A place value question!
552+231=?
All you need to do is add the hundreds together.
500+200=700
And then add the tens together
50+30=80
And then add the ones together!
2+1=3
So the answer is 783!
