Mixed ability Maths

Mixed ability Maths

Hello bloggers,

This term we have been doing a different sort of maths. Mixed ability Maths. We also have a mixed- ability maths group so we can work together and solve the maths problem together. We also get to write what you think the answer is and you need to show the others in our group how you can work it out.  We can see and learn the other person's strategies and see if they got their answer right.


I think that mixed ability is a very good way for us to work our maths problems. If somebody in your group needs help to work the problem out you don't need to stand up and go and waste their time while they are waiting for you to and help them if you are helping someone else to work out there problem too.  Now the person next to you can help you out with the problem. 


I feel like mixed ability maths is really good for your brain because you can get better, and better, and better, until you get to a high school level. 


I enjoy it because it is a lot of fun and it keeps our brains working and gets our maths to a new level. 

Hayley's Maths Understanding

Hello bloggers,
 This week, we have been making a Google Drawing to show  our maths. On the first day that we did this we had to finish three maths problems but some people did all of the maths problems and Miss D was very happy with them.  Here is my slideshow.

The living world

Hello, This my slideshow. For the next five or six weeks we will choosing our own activities to learn about the living world. We did multiple intelligences test to see what kind of learner we were. My top three ways of learning  intelligences are;

1. Naturalist
2. Musical
3. Visual
I am look forward to learning about The living world.

Earth Worms

Last week we did a slide about earthworms. We have been learning about this thing called digging deeper to write more complex sentences. Here are my sentences -




1. Earthworms would go the dark side than the light side.

2. Earthworms like to go in nice and moist soil than normal dirt.

3. Earthworms can breath under water so they can stay away from the birds so they can't be eaten.

I liked doing this earthworm thing because I have learn't new things that I have not heard before and learning new things about earthworms.

Fishbone

We have been learning how to write explanations and also

doing research about the living world so our teachers gave us this writing task. We learned what a fishbone diagram is and how to use a completed one to make our own using a life form of our choice. We had to organise the fact boxes by using MRS GREN which is an acronym which reminds you about what life forms do. Here is mine. I chose to write about:

What I liked about this task: I liked writing the facts about the clown fish.

What was easy: Finding the facts.

Figure Me Out
