Section outline

  • Context:

    • The Me in Team

    Explore (Setting the scene)

      We will be learning about numbers and operations this term. Our Whanau context for this term is The Me in Team and we will link what we learn to the context by learning about our own strengths and weaknesses in our own maths learning.

      We will start by revising decimal place value and rounding numbers especially rounding decimals.

      MHJC Learning Framework Step:

      Learning Intentions:

      • We are EXPLORING numbers and operations so that we connect numbers to daily life, objects and incidents
      • We are EXPLORING  place value so that we can conceptualise number in a meaningful way
      • We are EXPLORING  the difference between digits and numbers so that we classify them
      • We are EXPLORING  numbers and operations o that we can recognise the practical application of number and number sense

        


    Activities:

    • Mind mapping of Mathematics in relation to the world
    • History background of our based-10 (decimal) number system.
    • Reading and understanding whole numbers and decimal numbers, linking to fractions.
    • Self-analysis of own strengths and weaknesses in maths (over a range of math topics learned so far); including identify own gaps.
