My term 3 over view!

Walt:write a term 3 over view.

My term overview is a lot of recounts and a lot of math whiz. My favorite out of these two tasks was math whiz. The reason why I liked math whiz more than recounts is because math whiz is a game that never stops. It is fun at the same time and teaches you a lot about how to solve and to add,subtract and many more things. Also a lot of sports. From cricket to rugby to tag and many more. This term has been a journey of 10 weeks in the making. This has got to be my personal favorite terms.

It has also got to be my favorite year. with my silly and crack up teacher Mr Somerville.

Maths problem solving!

WALT: add and subtract decimals
Task description: In this activity we are learning how to add and subtract decimals. This is really familiar to a term 1 presentation that I did where if there is a question like 5.9-3.7? Well first I say to myself why sub when I can add and this is how you do it. 

So as I said before if I have a question like 5.9-3.9 I can think and say well what is 3.7 + something = 5.9. Lets start with the whole number 3+2=5. Then 0.7 + 0.2 =0.9 so add all of that together and the answer is 2.2. I always add the things that I added the first time.  

3+(2)=5
.7+(.2)=0.9
