  • PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI

    PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI learning intentions:

    • We are PLANNING to PERFORM operations with capacity
    • We are measuring slide lengths and APPLYING formulae to CALCULATE perimeter and area
    • We are PERFORMING angle measurements using a protractor
    • We are CONSTRUCTING a net to package spaghetti pasta



    Authentic Outcomes:  To construct an enlarged food package (net) to demonstrate my understanding of 'proportional reasoning' for my (half-serving) spaghetti pasta recipe. 

    Success Criteria:  I can...
     • Name types of triangles
     • Calculate the area of triangles
     • Write the unit/s of measurement (mm, cm, m & km)
    • Identify the parts of a circle
    • Calculate the circumference and area of a circle
    • Construct a net

    Class Activities:   Geometry & Measurement

    1.  We will be completing the construction of our food packaging nets in class this week to meet 'Checkpoint One'.
    - construct your net and take it home (take photo of your food carton)
    - cook your spaghetti pasta recipe at home with parent supervision (take photo)
    - place your spaghetti in your lined (baking paper or tin foil) food carton (take a photo)  

    2. insert your photos onto pages 3 and 4 of your Assessment 2 document (shown below) that is on Google Classroom. 

    Homework:   
    Please cook your spaghetti pasta recipe and take photos for homework this week (Checkpoint 1 is this Friday).
