Ordering population numbers

Today in Maths we worked in our thinking teams to find the answer to two maths questions. In the photo you will see our group, The Math Maniacs working out the number value of our group name. To do this we used additional strategies in our place value knowledge. In the second activity we worked as a group to put the population numbers in order. To do this we used our place value knowledge.

Hour Of Code

This week I have been introduced to a new game for reading. It is called Hour of code, this game was introduced to us because it is just like reading. The aim of this game was to get the character to get to the finishing point, there were 11 levels/games to play. When you were finished with playing all the levels then you would get a certificate for playing the game. Some of the levels were easy, but some were hard. We needed to use our knowledge to use the exact amount of movement blocks to get the full points. If we went over the maximum amount of blocks then we wouldn't get the full points, but if we stayed in the limit of the blocks then we would get the full points. I really enjoyed paying this game and I think it really helps in reading.
