Solve simple linear equations

Here are all of the screenshots of all my learning.
My next step is to slow down because I was answering the questions to fast and I kept getting them wrong. Also to solve word problems involving simple linear equations.

Describe patterns of reflection, rotation, & translation

W.A.L.T Describe patterns of reflection, rotation, & translation

Instuctions 

1. Draw a 10cm x 10cm square.

2. On the top line make a mark at 3cm and 7cm.

3. On the bottom line make a mark at 3cm and 7cm.

4. On the top line where you made the 7cm mark draw that line down 4cm.

5. On the bottom line where you made a mark at 3cm draw that line up 4cm.

6. On the top line at the 3cm mark draw a line to connect with the line at the 7cm mark

7. On the bottom line at the 7cm mark draw a line to connect with the line at  the 3cm mark 

Using a range of multiplicative strategies.

In Maths we have been learning to use a range of multiplicative strategies when operating with whole numbers.

Here is a link to our online modelling book

The strategies we have been learning are:

- Estimate the reasonableness of large problems like 1 788 – 891. Could 497 be right?

- Use multiplication to solve addition and subtraction problems eg.

  64 – 48 = as (8 x 8) – (6 x 8) = 2 x 8= 16

- Use doubling / halving, trebling/ thirding and adjusting to solve multiplication problems,

 eg.  12 x 50 solved as 4 x 150= 600

- Use an algorithm to solve multiplication problems.

- Solve problems using simple cube numbers .

- Use an algorithm to solve division problems.

Here is a link to my Multiplicative Strategies Assessment which shows that I know why and how I use particular strategies. This doc also has screenshots to show which IXL activities I have completed as part of my learning.

My next step in my Maths Learning is…… To get onto the division strategy's because I didn't get on to them.

I can describe mean, median,mode and range

Mean:  You have to add all the numbers together and then divide them buy how many numbers you have.  E.G. Add 1,3,4,6,8,10 and then divide it by 6 it Equals 5.333.

Median:  Is where you put the numbers in order from smallest to biggest and find the middle number E.G. 1,2,4,6,8 the answer is 4.

Mode: The number that showed up the most.

Range:  You put the numbers smallest to biggest subtract the smaller number with the bigger number.  

I can read and interpret a range of graphs

W.A.L.T.  I can read and interpret a range of graphs

For maths I have been learning to read and interpret a range of graphs. This relates to the National Standards as it meets the criteria of:

• I can compare distributions visually (Year ⅞ Standard)

Here is link to my Statistical Literacy spreadsheet Statistical Literacy.  Which shows all of the graphs and tables I can read and interpret.

I have also compared and contrasted some of the graphs. Below are the links to them

• Example 1
• Example 2

My next step is to use these in my leadership investigation next term.

Know the equivalent decimals and percent forms of everyday fractions.

W.A.L.T.  Know the equivalent decimals and percent forms of everyday fractions.

In maths my goal has been know the equivalent decimals and percent forms of everyday fractions. I have been working on this goal for a long time and I have finally passed it. https://docs.google.com/a/oaklands.school.nz/document/d/186NKkqQpfYQbGcRc1NxJ6PSkBczwZNi1gGvrciRvSKE/edit?usp=sharing
