EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:
- We are EXPLORING Matariki & Camp Adair as rich contexts for adding and simplifying fractions
- We are EXPLORING Matariki & Camp Adair as rich contexts for writing fractions as decimals, and fractions as %'s, and vice versa.
- We are EXPLORING Matariki & Camp Adair as rich contexts for applying the order of operations
Welcome back to school and a new timetable + classroom (F3) for our Mathematics sessions in Term 2.
This week we will be revising our learning surrounding fractions - especially adding and simplifying fractions. You will have 1 less lesson this week due to your trip to the Buddhist Temple.
