All About Maths

Today we have been working in small groups. We have learnt to use a range of strategies to solve a given word problem. This means that we have to come up with more than one way to solve the maths equations Miss Karaka gives us.

At the end we share all the different ways we have used to figure out the equation, for example:

Adding and subtracting using tens and ones

34-12+26        45-14
30-10=20        40-10=30
4-2=2              5-4=1
26+22=48       30+1=31

Jumping the number line
_________________________________________________________________
27           (+3)                    30                   (+10)                      40         (+5)            45
27+3+10+5=45

_________________________________________
         31          (-4)       35                 (-10)               45
45-14=31
