Scales

Explore and use a scale to work out distances on a map. This is my dlo about scales. I found working out which information was important difficult. I enjoyed finally seeing my dlo come together. I was very short on time so I didn't use a map.

Turn up the volume! Wait a second...

WALT: calculate the volume of cuboids. I found it very interesting learning about how to measure the volume of cuboids. I found working out how to explain it hard. Next time I would add more questions.

Circle art.

WALT: create a picture using a compass. This is my complex circle art I made with a compass. I really enjoyed creating this art. Next time I would add more colour.

Circles

WALT: Identify parts of a circle. I enjoyed working with a compass and learning about the parts of a circle. Next time I would draw the circle using pen and paper and upload it on my slideshow.

working form.

WALT: multiply multi-digit whole numbers.I enjoyed making this dlo because I think it could help someone learn how to use working form. I first found working form really hard and was the only person in my group who couldn't do it. Next time I would explain it better.

Robot square

Last week we were learning about co-ordinates by creating a square. I am very happy with my work and am so glad I am done! Next time I would make it look better. I found hard having to change the size of the square at the last minute. Remember to press the play button rather than the next slide button .

B.E.D.M.A.S board game!

We have been working on games that help teach B.E.D.M.A.S. If you have seen my latest maths slides then you would know that we have been learning about B.E.D.M.A.S. I worked on this game and slideshow with Trinity. She is super cleaver and has some very interesting stuff on her blog.

What is BEDMAS and how do you use it?

W.A.L.T understand and explain the rules for order of operations including explaining the acronym. Trinity and I have been working on this slideshow to explain how BEDMAS works. Our next steps would to be to simplify our directions. Trinity is really smart and has posted a lot of helpful things so here is her blog.

Order of operations

WALT: recognise that the order of operations matters in real life situations. For maths we have been organising tasks into basic orders. We will then apply this to maths. I think this could be neater but the information is there and that is what counts.

Common factors

W.A.L.T how to work out the highest common factor in a number. I think I have done a good job on this slideshow and am happy with the outcome. Next time I would make the slideshow look more visually appealing( Pretty).

Exponents.

This week we were learning about exponents.  This slideshow was a little bit hard to make because this is a confusing topic. Hopefully you are able to  understand.

The transformation of recurring numbers.

W.A.L.T: When to terminate a decimal answer and when to recur it. This was very confusing and and took a while. Next time I would try to add more information.

Multiplying decimals.

In this slideshow I will try to explain the strategy for maths that we learned this week. I hope it makes sense and is easy to understand. There is a small quiz at the end so if you complete it please tell me if you got it right or not. It ill tell me if I did a good job of explaining. My next steps are to make everything more clean and better looking.

Time series data

As a class we were working on time series data. We didn't have a w.a.l.t but we got to work in pairs. Nikita and I have done the data collection together but I made this slideshow and added most of the information. Next time I could add more information but I couldn't think of enough things to include.

Using factors to solve multiplication problems.

This week I have been learning about a new multiplication strategy.  In this slideshow I will explain how to use factors to solve multiplication problems.I hope you enjoy! I think my next steps could be how I present my DLO.

How to add decimals.

We have been learning how to add fractions. I made this slide to show what we have been learning and how to add fractions. Please leave a comment and I hope you learn lots!

Reflection. Like a mirror? Kind of.

In this slideshow I have made a digital object on reflection. I made all my GIFs for the transformation objects on piskel. I hope you enjoy and learn heaps!

Enlargement animation.

Enlargement means to expand something but keep the angles and  proportions.

What is rotation? Is it flipping an object? lets find out!

We have been creating digital objects on the four transformations, I hope you learn something!

Translation? What does that mean?

Translation means to move something.

See how the cat moves from one side of the line to the other but stays the same. That’s translation.

The object is being flipped over a centre line but it still faces the same way.
