  • PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI

    PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI learning intentions:

    • We are PLANNING to apply ourselves to practice addition and subtraction of fraction with different denominators
    • We are PLANNING to solve fractions of a whole amount in order to solve the scores of commonwealth teams
    • We are PLANNING to practice multiplying whole numbers by a decimal in a problem solving situation


    Success Criteria: I can/have: 

    • identify a reciprocal fraction
    • multiply and divide fractions
    • write reciprocals of fractions
    • multiply a whole number by a decimal using simple multiplication steps as used in whole number and then adjusting based on decimal places
    • write decimals as fractions by using place value and simplifying fractions

    Activities:
    - Finishing reciprocals worksheets
    - Maths games: 
      - Guess my number: https://nzmaths.co.nz/guess-my-number
      - Class game Loopy with decimals:

    • Sit in circle

    • Think of decimal 1-10

    • Next person adds an operation for the next person between 1-10 (e.g. add 5)

    • Next person solves it then adds an operation

    • Can’t repeat same operation

    • Keep going till one person gets it incorrect or repeats, then start again
