  • FOCUS / ARONGA

    FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

    • We are FOCUSING on enhancing our instant recall of basic facts using 'Ludi'
    • We are FOCUSING on solving fraction, decimal and % conversions, in context
    • We are FOCUSING on explaining place value to round whole and decimal numbers, in context
    • We are FOCUSING on developing statistical and scientific investigations
    • We are FOCUSING on choosing the best method(s) to collect and display data
    • We are FOCUSING on describing findings, relationships and trends

    Kia ora 7F2,


    This week we continue our learning around Mathematics with Statistics, as we shall be needing to apply these skills to chart and discuss our Science Fair results in a couple of weeks. 

      Authentic Outcomes:  Science Fair

      Success Criteria:  I can...
      • Use Google Sheet to display data
      • Analyse data using the explore function of Google Sheet
      • Discuss data through a written review of 'results', and a 'discussion' and 'conclusion' statement
             •  Recall my basic + , - , x and ➗ facts

      Do Now: 
      Students will complete their Numeracy Ninja 'Do Now' Task.  Mark as a class. 




      Class Activities: 

       Number & Statistics (+ introduction to Algebra)

      1.  Kevin, Zoya and Quint will be completing their Assessment One test in the central Whanau. 

      2. Students in Fibonacci will be working with Miss Kindley to target gaps in their testing: specifically rounding decimals and adding fractions with different denominators.  

      3.  Students in Newton will be working from the projector to target gaps in their testing: specifically rounding decimals then working with Miss Kindley to consolidate 'Averages'.  

      4.  Students in Archimedes will be working on Google Classroom to complete their Ludi investigation. Students are to finish then 'Turn in'. 

      5.  Students in Pythagoras will also be working on Google Classroom to complete their Ludi investigation.  Students are to finish then 'Turn in'.

      6.  Writing of Maths Evaluations.


      Homework:   

      We will be introducing some Algebra content from this week to join our revision of 'Averages' and 'Number' tasks on Maths Buddy.  You also have received one 'Weekly Revision' task.  The purpose of this revision activity is to keep revising the wider strands.
