    Term 2, Week 1

    Welcome back to your new way of learning - online!! I hope you have had a great break. 

    This week will be a bit strange and it will take us a few sessions to get in a routine. I will be online for all your classes this week, so please check later today for an email for joining me on Google Hangouts. We are coming up to an assessment, which we will probably do through Education Perfect.  But more on this later. Remember, you can email me at any time if you are stuck or have concerns.

    Term 2, Week 4



    This week we are starting our new context for term two - Superstars. 

    For our learning, we are going to start by investigating data provided by the WHO (World Health Organisation) on the Global Coronavirus Situation in Numbers. We will then design and construct a variety of graphs to identify data relationships, followed by analysing the data so we can make statements and comparisons. 

    The skills we will learn will also help us to become Superstars with our Science Fair Project and our Minute to Win it Challenge, in PE in Health.

    Learning intention: (We are learning to…)

    • Analyse data and display in graphical format using Google Sheets. 

    Success criteria: (I can…)

    • Collect data
    • Sort information into categories
    • Record data in tables 
    • Plot graphs to identify relationships between variables
    • Answer questions by sorting, organising and arranging information
    • Make statements about the findings


    Activities:

    • Watched a short video on 'Which Graph to I use?'
    • Developing an understanding of how to read data tables
    • Discovering an understanding of the global coronavirus numbers by region
    • Transforming the data into spreadsheets 
    • Practising how to set up a graph using spreadsheets
    • Designing a pie chart using topline data - learning skills of titles, sorting etc.
    • Publishing our learning onto one page shared class Google Sheet
    • Demonstrating our understanding by making statements about the data
    • Learning skills as a class of collaborating and sharing our learning


    Homework

    1. Priority: Maths Buddy
    2. Classwork: No class homework this week, unless you contact me for help with your graph.
    3. Education Perfect: Tasks have been set for you to do, at your leisure, based on your Term One Assessment Grade for Numbers.

    Around the World in 80 Days

    Welcome back to Term 3. 

    My name is Mrs. Lindsay and I will be continuing your maths journey.
    My contact details are alindsay@mhjc.school.nz

    Our topic this term will allow us to explore different ways and strategies of measuring objects and experiences. Although it's always nice to the get correct "answer" we will also focus on "how" we got there- is there an easier or faster way to do the same thing? As they say, its all about the journey, not the destination!


    Achievement objectives

    Learning Intention 

    Apply measurement techniques in everyday life


    Solo Level and verbs 

    One 

    Name, identify, tell, recall, classify, do a simple procedure

    Two 

    Describe, list, enumerate, combine, do algorithms

    Three

    Compare/contrast, explain, causes, effects, integrate, analyse, relate, apply

    Four 

    Evaluate, theorise, generalise, hypothesise, reflect, generate


    -tell the area of a given picture 

    -count the number of squares to identify the area of the shape 

    -Find an approximation of the area

    -create a square meter from a newspaper and use to make an estimation of an area

    -Find areas of the rectangle
