Math: Highest Common Factor (HCF)

 LI: To create a google draw and explain the HCF with a meaning and example.

 

The above google draw is a collaborative work of Afatia and me which showcases our learning on Highest Common Factor (HCF) under the topic of math. We first started by solving basic question and follow up worksheets to understand the topic step by step. Then we started to make this google draw. To explain the task in detail we have added the meaning, strategy, example and an image of the workout. I found this topic very interesting because we never knew about such a strategy and to solve these questions. I really liked working with Afatia and would love to do more tasks like this.

Math: Ratio and Proportions

 LI: To use our math skills to solve a question and create a google draw showcasing our strategy.

The above google draw is a collaborative work of Ong, Lukah, Afatia and me which showcases our learning on ratios and proportions. We first started by watching videos and solving basic question to understand the topic step by step. Once we were confident enough to solve harder question we solved the above question. To explain our math task in detail we have added the question, main information, strategy, answer and a picture of our working. I found this question very interesting because we used more than one strategy which were addition and multiplication. I really liked working with my friends and would love to do more tasks like this.

Math: Weekly Challenges

 LI: To practice using number and strategy knowledge. 

The above google draw is made to showcase the screenshots I have taken while solving very interesting Math questions on Math Weekly Challenges . This was a site which was made by the government and provided for the students who currently study for year three to year eleven. I really liked these challenges for various reasons. The first one is that we could keep our learning going and also came to know about new strategies and formulas to solve higher level questions. The second one is that we got to choose which level are we comfortable on, I chose the senior but because of this quality many students enjoyed this. The third and the last one is that the cartoons and characters make the thing look very eye-catchy also attracting the student to complete all of them. Finishing all these weekly challenges was very useful and knowledgeable for me. 

Math: Negative Numbers

LI: To add and subtract positive and negative numbers.

The above google draw is created by Fau, Sulia and me as a challenge for math negative numbers. We first learned about negative numbers and solved basic questions through the help of a number line. Then we solved the questions with a higher level in our Math workbooks. I added the picture and found the strategy where as Sulia and Fau made the google draw. The question solved above is one of them and to explain it we wrote the question, main information, strategy and answer. We came to know a lot about negative number and enjoyed to work as a team to make the google draw. 

Math: Long Division

LI: To find the answers to the question using long division and explaining the strategy in steps.

This week me and Chris combined and worked as a team to solve our first Math Challenge. The above google draw showcases the question, strategy, main information, steps and the answer a long division problem. We first understood the efficient strategy of long division by Ms. Anderson and practiced it in our workbooks. Once we understood the strategy Chris chose the question and wrote the basic steps and I wrote the main information and the strategy. To find the answer we first see how much times the number is divisible then did multiplication and subtraction. We then dropped the number down and repeated the steps. Then we got our quotient as 506 and the remainder as 11. I really enjoyed working as a team as we could discuss our answers.

Math: Calendar Challenge

LI: To find the most efficient strategy to find solve the problem.

This week me and Sulia combined and worked as a team to solve our second Math Challenge. The above google draw showcases the question, strategy, main information and the answer to solve this problem. We found this question easy as the values were written clearly and there wasn't any extra information to get confused. Once we understood the question Sulia told the strategy and I did the calculations. To find the answer we first take away the amount of money given to the photographer from each calendar as they both have the same units. We then multiply the amount of the calendars to the cost and then get our answer $759.90. I really enjoyed working as a team as we could discuss our strategies.

Math: Subway Challenge

LI: To find the most efficient strategy to solve the problem.

This week for our first Math Challenge me and Sulia worked together to solve the problem. The above google draw showcases the question, main information, strategy and the answer to solve this problem. We think this question was a little tricky as we got confused with the extra information. Once we understood the question Sulia told the strategy and I did the calculations. To find the answer we find the number of combos for the two different amounts and then multiply them with their amount. Once we get two different answers we add them and get our final answer which is $831. I enjoyed working as a team as we both could divide the work and also came to know about each others opinion. 

Math: Blog Post Analysis

LI: To analyse our blog post data to help us set goals. 

I used the statistical  information on my blog to help me set goals for 2020. Before I can publish a blog post I need to complete the task. I worked the average number of posts I made for each month and used the data to set a realistic and achievable blogging goal.
