  • PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI

    PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI learning intentions:

    • We are PLANNING for camp using Number in context: dorm rooms, activity groups and rotation stations
    • We are PREPARING averages (mean, mode, median, and range) to give information about data and to draw conclusions


    Kia ora 7F2.  This week we continue to explore Number through our     context,  ‘Tūrangawaewae - Where do we stand?'  by looking at number operations that can be associated with 'Camp Adair'.  We are also revisiting 'averages' (mean, mode, median, and range) and introducing graphing: line graphs and dot plots.  


    Whakataukī: “He waka eke noa!”
     Metaphorical: A waka we are all in together. We rise together, fall together, work together and keep going together!
     Literal: Working in unity and leaving no-one behind.

    Authentic Outcomes:  Marae trip to Howick, presentation of Pepeha, Waiata and 'Kia Mana Ake' , our school haka.  Camp Adair.

    Success Criteria:  I can...
    • Find factors of numbers (number bugs)
    • List the 'multiples' of numbers

    Class Activities:   Number & Statistics
    1.  Record and underline the short date with a ruler and record the session's Learning Intention at the front of your maths exercise books.  Please write in pencil, and rule/underline and mark with red pen. 
    2.  In-class discussion and demonstration with the Teacher.  
    Fibonacci:  Factor Bugs, then Matariki Graphs investigation. 
    Newton: Finish then mark Matariki Graphs investigation.  Revise mean, median, mode and range with Tchr then introduce to 'Column Graphs + Dot Plot' tasks.  
    Pythagoras: Finish median, mode and range tasks + mark.  Then work on 'Column Graphs + Dot Plot' task' then 'line graph' and 'dot plot' activities (below) with Tchr (then independently). 
     Fast finishers can work on their  Maths Buddy  reinforcement activities.
     3.  Mark exercise bookworm, in groups. 
     4.  Reflect on your understanding and effort, in your ' Maths Evaluation '. 

    Homework:   
     Maths Buddy is your priority for your at-home practice. Please complete your set homework tasks by Friday at 9:30am (Forest's homework routine has now changed to 'Due on Fridays & re-issued on Fridays' to allow you more time).  If you have completed your assigned activities please do extra practice on your 'Ludi'  timetables programme. 

    Here's my suggestion re: how to effectively distribute your weekly homework responsibilities this week...

    Fridays at school during FFR time:  Maths Buddy Multi-Stand Revision Task (40 questions) and 1 x  IB plus 1 x RA
    Mondays: 2 x Maths Buddy Tasks and 1 x See Reader
    Tuesdays: 2 x Maths Buddy Tasks and 1 x See Reader
    Wednesdays: 2 x Maths Buddy Tasks and 1 x See Reader
    Thursdays: 2 x Maths Buddy Task, 1 x See Reader, 1 x IB plus 1 x RA
