Mathematical Problem Solving
• Name and apply different problem-solving strategies
Class Activities: Number
1. Issue class Numeracy Certificates.
2. Complete Ludi basic facts speed test. Issue stickers for 1:1 and 2:1 once passed the 'Emerging' and 'Basic' levels.
3. Work through question banks 1:2. 1:3, 1:4 to 1:8 aiming for 95% or higher to earn a sticker on your Stage One of your Numeracy Certificate.
4. Whanau Monitors will record your name on our Whanau spreadsheet on Wednesdays when you complete a Stage (8 stickers) and assign an eBadge on your Holistic Report.
5. Miss Kindley or Mrs Phadke will assign Stage Two on Maths Buddy to students who have passed all 8 tasks at Stage One.
6. 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.
7. In-class discussion and demonstration with the Teacher.
Mathematical Problem Solving
Fast finishers can work on their Maths Buddy reinforcement activities.
8. Mark exercise bookwork, in groups.
9. 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 and complete your Numeracy Certificate tasks.
Here's my suggestion re: how to effectively distribute your weekly homework responsibilities this week...
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, 1 x See Reader during Wananga Wednesday and 1 x iBalance plus 1 x Read Around at home
Thursdays: 2 x Maths Buddy Task, 1 x See Reader
