Adding Decimals


This week For maths we were making a DLO about How to Add Decimals. What you need to do first is write you equation. My equation will be 3.1 + 6.3. The aim is to make a whole number. Add something to one of you numbers to make a whole number. For this equation I will add 2 to the 3.1 and that will make 3.0.Then I need to take away .2 form the 6.3 because we took the .2 and gave it to 3.1. Then add 3.0 and 6.3 and your answer should be 9.40. For our book we needed to go on the class site and go on the maths to find out what the question were. Then we needed to answer the questions. This was easy because I understand how the questions and strategy worked.

The first thing we did was pick a car l was working with Angela and Joel and we picked a Range Rover for this we had to see which was cheaper to fill a Range Rover with milk, sprite or petrol? Why? How do you know? What type of maths did you use to solve this? and Think of the price, size, and liters. Joel was working on the Milk the first thing she did was try and find out how much it would be per liter and see how many capacities there would be. After that l  was working on the Sprite the first thing l did was try and find out how much it would be per liter and see how many capacities there would be and Angela did the same put with the Fuel which was the Petrol. The last thing we did was share it with the class and see if we were right or wrong our teacher Mrs. Anderson said we did a great job with this problem and we had a great google drawing.

Scale Drawing

This week we had maths week we were learning how to do an Enlargement. This was called Scale drawing it was my first time doing it and l enjoyed making this because l could learn more about Measurement.  l started with picking out my image which was going to be Micky Mouse then l drew
on my 1cm square grid and the 2cm square grid on the A3 paper. The Scale Factor was the number that multiplied by 2. l thought my drawing came out great because l took my time on it and tried to take my time on it we created our tag to show who made the Scale drawing. Next time l think l could make the eyes a little bit better than before. What l found hard to do was keep the drawing in the right boxes and look at the image to see how it looks like in the boxes. The best part about my drawing was the mouth l liked how the mouth came out.
