  • EXPLORE / TŪHURA

    EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

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


    Kia Ora and Good Morning...

    Welcome (back) to MHJC – Coast Whanau.

    I am Mr Choong, your Maths teacher and we are going to learn and do all the fun stuff in Mathematics.

    Remember:  Success = daily practice in maths. 

    Daily means 30-45 mins every day! That's it!  Maths Buddy is an online maths program to help you. If you can do Maths Buddy every day for 30 mins or more,  it's done.  Maths Buddy is great because you will have a video to demonstrate how  the maths is done for each problem. So, you have a teacher to help you at any time.  Remember I see you only twice a week, but maths must be done every day. That's why Maths Buddy is so important.

    You can use your MHOL login name and password to log in to Maths Buddy

    We will be learning about numbers and operations this term. Our Whanau context for this term is The Me in Team.  We will learn how to link and apply what we learn this term to our context.

    We are going to start this week by revising our number properties and operation skills that we have learned previously.  We will do a self-analysis of our strengths and weaknesses in Math in our books.

    After that, you may want to review your knowledge of our number system, number properties and operations using the following link:
