Term 1

Adding and subtracting of fractions, decimals and integers using: rounding and compensating, place value partitioning, reversibility, equal additions, using negatives, common factors, knowing equivalent fractions.

Week 9

WALT: understand that subtraction can produce negative numbers.

Integers

Learning Tasks

In groups play 'Freeze or Melt'. You will need a deck of playing cards from 1 (ace) -9.

Work through tasks.

REMEMBER:

Rewindable Resource

Watch to help you understand negative numbers better.

Week 6

WALT: Add and subtract decimals using place value partitioning.

Week 6

Learning Tasks

Complete the tasks in your workbook.

Add decimals using place value partitioning..webm

Rewindable Resource

Watch these videos to help you remember how to use place value partitioning.

REMEMBER you may have to rename part-whole numbers into whole numbers.

Subtract decimals using place value partitioning..webm

Extension.

Create a DLO (digital learning outcome) and record yourself using screencastify to teach someone this strategy.

Create word problems for this strategy and ask a friend to solve them.

REMEMBER: You will need to know the answer and give feedback on whether they are successful in solving your problem.

POST to your Blog by Friday 13th March.

Week 4&5

WALT: Demonstrate our knowledge of decimal place value through solving problems; Order decimals on a number line.

Decimal Place Value

Learning Tasks

Complete this task.

Work in pairs if your struggling.

Rewindable Resource

Watch this video to help you remember the decimal place value system. REMEMBER:

Numbers to the RIGHT of the decimal point are read individually. They are parts of a unit (a whole number).
The place value is the position the number holds.
The number represents the value in that position.

Extension

Choose a famous mathematician who had something to do with decimals.

Examples - Archimedes, Stevin, Napier, Dewey

Draw a timeline of their life in years and months indicating all the significant events and discoveries.

Share and display your research.

Use this site to help you solidify your place value knowledge of part-whole numbers.

Week 3

WALT: Subtract with tenths using the equal additions strategy.

Stage 7 subtraction with tenths

Learning Tasks

Inspired by the works of Kelsey Morgan.

Make a copy and file into your drive.

(Once Hapara is up and running I will do this for you).

Slide3 - work in pairs with materials. Take photos as evidence. Insert into slide.
Slides 4 &5 - complete individually in your books. Take images, insert into slide as evidence.
Have a go at the extension task. Add slides to your presentation - 1 for your recording and 1 for your word problems.
Post your finished work to your blog.
