Numeracy+(Term+2)

Numeracy This semester, 5/6M learnt subtraction, we've been practising our 1 to 12 time’s tables, and we have done multiplication, done some measuring on length, perimeter and area and division.

In subtraction, we learnt how to subtract a large number into a smaller number. We had done two by two digits and three by three digits.

In multiplicati0n, we have been doing a little multiplication quiz, we have to finish it in 1 or 2 minutes. It’s really challenging, I really liked it.

In length, we’ve been doing table groups activities, like found an object that has a length of 5 cm, 10 cm and 30 cm. For the 5 cm, I found my object as an eraser, it was 6 cm. For the 10 cm object, I found my object as a glue stick, it was 11.4 cm and for the 30 cm one, I found my object as a book called ‘The Rabbits’, it was 28.6 cm. I think all my estimations was accurate, because I know what 5 cm, 10 cm and 30 cm are and I searched around for the length that could be the right one even though they are 1 or 2 cm off. I also know length well.

In perimeter, we worked out the definition of perimeter. The definition for perimeter is the total outside distance of a 2D shape. We have been doing activities and drawn some shapes ourselves and find the perimeter of it.

In division, Miss M taught us how to do long division and gave us work sheets that we think that its our level.

To end my summary, I just want to say I really enjoyed doing all those useful and fun things and I learnt heaps too. (:
