Term 1 Week 4

EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

• We are EXPLORING... with scales, measurement and unit conversion to make sense of our new space in Water Whanau
• We are EXPLORING... our Pepeha and how this connects to the 2D and 3D world around us
• We are EXPLORING... how our number skills and knowledge of measurement can help with orienting ourselves in our new space
  
  Success Criteria 
  
  -I can find the unknown length of scale drawings given the lengths of the original object and some lengths of the scaled drawing 
  -I can find unknown lengths when the scale drawing is enlarged or scaled smaller
  -I understand when to use division (when an item is getting smaller) and multiplication (when an item is enlarged) 
  -I understand that multiplying by a number less that 1 but great than 0 will result in smaller dimensions and can use this to identify the scale factor in various contexts and word problems
  
  Activities This Week
